a couple of quick and somewhat obvious comments. i use VERY large fonts with a maximized gui emacs [vt / maximized urxvt when needed], still resulting in, throughout emacs, often, a smaller number of screen lines or columns than content, even with my usual one window per frame. most org menus respect this and can be scrolled or tweaked. just wanted compatibility to be in the specs. especially, to make sure no functionality is unreachable, but also where possible to modify column numbers / fill to look ok. i am slowly trying transient in gptel and still getting used to it.
next, i use org-mouse and think it's wonderful. generally, when using a computer, i use mouse-only or kb-only, but not the combination. mouseability was mentioned, but just wanted, where possible, the ability to do most things using only mouse in addition to only kb. and, where possible, org-mouse compatibility or replacement, whichever is deemed best.
