Are you aware that outorg.el works with message-mode too, so you can edit your emails in full Org-mode just by doing M-# M-# in the message-mode buffer and then M-# in the outorg-edit buffer when you are done? > It would be wonderful if we have mode-specific window configuration.

Recently the project 'org-writers-room' was announced on the Org-mode mailing list -it aims to offer just that, a kind of IDE for writers with (fixed) mode-specific window configuration, navigator, etc. (see [[gnus:nntp%2Bnews.gmane.org:gmane.emacs.orgmode#CAN_Dec99Ec5KzMQ7v%3DWMs%3D1RRTOXbzteaVtKNP7drD2tFzGdOA@mail.gmail.com][Email from Matt Price: org-writers-room sort of works]] ... I hope that link works). Maybe a starting point? -- cheers, Thorsten
