On large files, this is not the best set-up. But I assume anyone opening very large Org files is able to configure Org to their liking. On small files, e.g., a couple of screens high, this is a decent value, however. But, more importantly, this is the least surprising value. I think it is not uncommon for an Emacs user to open an Org file without knowing about this major mode, e.g., if a project provides a README.org file. This change is (mostly) for them, not for you, or me. > As dar as I am concerned,the past default was OK and it took only > a brief time to learn the past behavior and the visibility settings on > a per file basis. > > I may be only a user but if I had I would have voted no. You can voice your opinion in the thread, which is not closed. I hope the Org community can find a consensus about this change. Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
