Inner braces need to be preserved as they are often there to protect capitalisation, e.g. for TLAs and names like McDonald, but also for compound names such as {van der Waals} which together form a single component of a name. So it's not just the title that needs to be treated carefully but other entries (author, editor, booktitle). -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 25.0.90.1, Org release_8.3.3-535-g7213aa
