You are right. So yours (slightly) better. >> With the dependency specified in an #+INIT or #+PREAMBLE or #+LISP-SETUP >> or whatever.

It also makes it easier for Emacs users.

By having a separate init file I ensure stability and coherency, hopefully also across time. For the same reason, I copy bib entries from my "global" lit.bib to a project lit.bib. Why not #+SETUP: 'Cause I also define filters, links, org-latex-package-alist etc. I even use a separate "org-cite" library. > To solve a portability issue, which is a related problem, then you don't > want to change init file for a give Org document, but instead attach it > to fixed set-up.

Hmm, I guess that would be nice. Do you have like a tar in mind? Would .borg be tar since it contains both "libraries" and a document? Unless we can somehow sandbox execution I guess it holds the same security issues as a #+INIT? BTW: If it can hold libraries, this could solve another pity: manually copying ox-koma-letter.el to vanilla Emacs setups. —Rasmus -- Enough with the bla bla!
