Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen. You don't know how to make a good report? See
https://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback
Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello,
I have code in my init that calls org-id-find to get the entry ID refers
to. When the ID is non-existent, the function unintentionally changes
the major-mode of the current buffer.
[ This almost caused me to lose a PDF file, but thankfully I could
recover it because of Emacs backup. Admittedly this happened because
I was half-panicking and half-confused. ]
To reproduce,
1. emacs -Q
2. M-: (require 'org-id)
3. Visit any file (M-x find-library RET org-id RET)
4. M-: (org-id-find "non-existent")
5. Witness the major-mode change
This all happens in org-id-find-id-in-file where when VISITING is
non-nil, the buffer is (re)used whether or not it was originally in
org-mode. The problem is complicated by the use of find-file-noselect
when MARKERP argument to org-id-find is non-nil. Perhaps,
org-id-find-id-file should check if the current-buffer is derived from
org-mode before returning the buffer-file-name. WDYT?

The patch below is what I had in mind. With it, I can no longer
reproduce the recipe above.

The patch looks reasonable.

Subject: [PATCH] org-id: Guard against unwarranted major-mode change when
querying id
* lisp/org-id.el (org-id-find-id-file): Only fallback to the
current-buffer filename when it is an org-mode buffer. This avoids
accidental change of the major-mode when querying a non-existent id
from a non-org-mode buffer.
