Well, let's agree to disagree on this one. org-tempo and C-c C- fill two different use cases: the first one for fast block insertion while typing, the second one for e.g. when the region is selected. I don't think allowing org-tempo "shadows" C-c C-, in any fashion. > It is only valuable for existing users, who relied on this feature, and > don't want to switch.

I'll be more receptive to this argument when animate-birthday-present is not in Emacs's core anymore :) That said, I'm receptive to the idea that Org could be more focused to its core functionalities. E.g., I think we could be more minimalistic about the ol-* and ox-* libraries in Org. Also, we should get rid of org-modules altogether now that Emacs has a packaging system. I'd suggest a discussion on this for after 9.4. -- Bastien
