It's absolutely a much more pleasant experience than article, at least if
you agree with the KOMA-guys' margin opinion (e.g. top:bottom margin is
fixed at 1:2).  [I've been using the KOMA-bundle for years and years].

The patch is also subjective, e.g. it does not feature \minisec[.]{.}.

ox-koma-article.el would be awesome but until then, there's no point in
adding it.
