I just checked the Org mode manual and found that it has several entries
that consist of `C-c' followed by a punctuation character.

In my quick check (at the boarding gate for an airline flight) I didn't
find a note that these sequences might properly be shadowed by a minor
mode. 

Perhaps a note in the manual would be useful?

All the best,
Tom
