BUG: plain lists inside drawers with org-cycle-include-plain-lists

BUG: plain lists inside drawers with org-cycle-include-plain-lists

[Tom Weissmann]

If you set org-cycle-include-plain-lists and then put a plain list inside a
drawer, the drawer stops working:

:FOO:
 - Ingredients
   + Chickpeas
   + Spinach
   + Aubergine
   + Pomegranate dressing
:END:

The error is ":END: line missing".

What happens in this case is that outline-regexp is changed within the dynamic
scope of org-cycle, and that includes org-flag-drawer - which needs to use the
original version of outline-regexp.

Saving outline-regexp and using the orignal version inside org-flag-drawer
partly solves the problem but the :END: tag is treated as the single child of
the last item in the plain list - meaning an extra visibility cycle.

I have implemented this partial fix.

This is a general problem with cycling plain lists.  Stuff after
the final item is considered part of the last item as far as cycling
is concerned.  The reason for this is that with
`org-cycle-include-plain-lists', all that happens is that item
lines are consireded as headlines as well.

The plain list editing commands on the other hand really look for
the end of a plain list, based on line indentation.  outline.el
internals do not cater for the pssibility that there might be
text "after a subtree", and so fixing this issue would involve
rewriting parts of outline.el.

I don't really know a good way forward on this point.

Thanks for your report and the analysis.
