Doesn't this depend on the way "Org mode" is being used in the sentence?

If it's used as a noun, as in, say:

    Org mode is one of the best features of Emacs.

then I'd expect there not to be a hyphen.

But if it's used as an adjective, as in, say:

    There are so many Org-mode features it's hard to wrap my brain around
    all of them.

then I'd expect there would be a hyphen.
