The "org-ellipsis" variable is specifically marked as (potentially)
a safe local variable, so obviously someone intended for it possibly to be used that, and believed that it might be useful to someone as a local variable. However, there is no setup that I can find which makes this work. Placing : # Local Variables: : # org-ellipsis: "XXX" : # End: at the end of the file, or setting it in the top line, makes no change in the ellipsis, even if you do M-x org-mode again or reload the file (with find-alternate-file). Indeed, M-x org-mode clears the local value assignment altogether. Setting it by hand with setq-local doesn't work (it is cleared when you do M-x org-mode again anyway, as mentioned.) So, is org-ellipsis really not meant ever to be a local variable? If so, that likely should be documented, and certainly the :safe annotation on it should be removed, as it strongly implies that using it as a local variable is acceptable and useful. I ran this with emacs -Q, using using the code from the git repository, commit f93020d5e6d7594c335cc129ad02c21ac26ed58a (as you can see by the local filepath below.) I hope I have explained the bug clearly enough.
