Hi all,
Org-mode uses two regex's to find headings, one from outline.el and one
defined internally and captures more information. I propose we stop using
the one from outline.el.
org-mode uses `org-back-to-heading` a lot to navigate point back to the
nearest heading.
This just delegates to `outline-back-to-heading` from the outline.el
package, which uses a regex for finding headlines: "[*\^L]+"
Org also defines another heading regex which is more capable and captures
more information: "^\\(\\*+\\)\\(?: +\\(.*?\\)\\)?[ \t]*$".
I would propose changing org-back-to-heading to use that so that a user
(like me :) ) can use `match-string` to grab the relevant parts of the
string.
Since this is a pretty simple, but sweeping change, I thought I'd bring it
up here first before patching.
Thanks!
