I like that. WOuld you like to modify your patch accordingly?
Yes, I'll do that. Just for the records: using the elisp function as
fall back for the external program changes the meaning of the
org-id-method uuidgen: It makes Org use UUIDs for the ID property and
the external program is the preferred method for doing this. Hence
the symbol should better be 'uuid, not 'uuidgen. So if there is a
list for backward incompatible changes for a further release (maybe
7.x) that are reasonable but not important this should go there.
Yes.
But what I would like to to ask is this:
Make the change and tell people to use `uuid' as the setting. But if
a user has set it to uuidgen, be gentle and accept that setting as
well, treat it like uuid.
Thanks!
