Subject: Re: newline at start of buffer

Hi Dan,

this was a stupid hack to get the headline away from the first
buffer line which can cause problems in Org under some circumstances
which are hard to consistently remove.  It looks a the empty buffer
case because this is what will happen when people open a new buffer
and immediately create a headline in this way.  When there is already
something in the buffer, even a space, I am assuming the user wants
to be in control.

If it is not bothering you a lot, I'd like to keep it this way.

- Carsten
