I recently upgraded to the latest version of org (from 7.4) and found that org-goto started exhibiting the following bugs when used in outline-path-completion mode:
1. If the point is before the first heading, org-goto will fail with "Before first headline at position 1 in buffer " 2. If the point is on a heading, org-goto will effectively not see this heading or its children. For instance, in the following hierarchy: * foo ** bar * baz when the point is somewhere on * foo, the whole * foo subtree is effectively invisible in org-goto 3. Similarly, when used with ido completion, the current heading and its children are excluded from ido completion list and are inaccessible. I am seeing this on Linux Mint 12, GNU Emacs 24.0.92.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.2.0) With a different version of emacs, GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.5), I don't see behavior (2) -- the heading at point is in fact visible to org-goto. However, the ido completing read is still broken.
