Ah, I wasn't aware of that. I think the documentation to org-indent
doesn't mention wrapping (14.6 A cleaner outline view). How about
something like this:
org-indent-mode also sets the wrap-prefix property, such that
visual-line-mode (or purely setting word-wrap) wraps long lines
(including headlines) correctly indented.

Right, I haven't used it to much up to now.

Awesome. This sounds like the way to go.

I sometimes like visual navigation in wrapped text and my own motion
commands. I have two commands to move visually explicitly (bound to
s-down, s-up (super-...)).
(defun next-visual-line (&optional arg try-vscroll)
(interactive "^p\np")
(let ((line-move-visual t))
(with-no-warnings
(next-line arg try-vscroll))))
(defun previous-visual-line (&optional arg try-vscroll)
(interactive "^p\np")
(let ((line-move-visual t))
(with-no-warnings
(previous-line arg try-vscroll))))

I'm using Matthew's module right now for two reasons.
* I had some trouble configuring org-indent-mode to only handle
line-wrapping for headlines, i.e., it shall only set wrap-prefix and
do nothing else. It always wanted to indent my headlines and body
texts additionally. Is this possible?
* Also, emacs segfaulted deterministically after globally collapsing
all trees with org-indent-mode active. I have to look into this ...
Cheers,
Martin
