No, it doesn't break it, because there are other builtin keys for

This is a very useful setting, because it allows the user to
quickly schedule a task into the future by simply entering the
time, but it doesn't always do the right thing.
Suppose I scheduled a task to 1pm, but I didn't have time to deal
with it during the day. It's 5pm now. If I want to reschedul

In this thread there was a solution for highlighting the whole
header line, so it stands out more from the buffer text:

My main gripe with org is that the appearance is too
crowded. Even if the header lines have different colors the
individual projects and sections I keep in the file have no visual
separation between them. For example, sometimes I'd like to add
empty lines after a header, so there is some visual spa

The agenda list would be easier to parse with the eye if each
priority level (A, B, C) had its own face. This way the user
could optionally set a background color for these priorities, so
priority items would stand out from the todo list.

I assumed orgfiles are scanned dynamically for filetags, so I

If a header has some text content under it and the cursor is in
the text then pressing TAB folds the content, but it doesn't
change the cursor position, so the cursor is stuck in the folded
