When someone uses the (very cool) feature org-tree-to-indirect-buffer[1] with multiple indirect buffers in parallel (using a prefix) instead of narrowing/widening to work - which I very much plan to do more often[2] -, you end up with a buffers like: - myorgmode.org-1 - myorgmode.org-2 - myorgmode.org-3 This is not very satisfying to me because I tend to forget, which sub-folder I can expect in myorgmode.org-2 ... How about using IDs of the sub-tree headings (if found) in order to name the buffer? In case someone is using custom IDs (like me), the list would look like: - myorgmode.org-1 (-> no ID found for this sub-heading) - myorgmode.org-project-foobar (-> :ID: project-foobar) - myorgmode.org-2013-10-25-customerX (-> :ID: 2013-10-25-customerX) In case there is a similar issue somewhere else in Org-mode where a condensed string is generated out of the heading line, this should be a viable option instead of the ID as well. I guess, this should be not that hard to implement and it brings much more usability (differ the buffers according to their name) to the user.
