Hi Carsten,

Unfortunately, my patch was a bit crude and caused some rather  
unpredictable formatting.

Here's an improvement which fixes that; I had forgotten to reset cnt  
to 0 whenever a new line occurred, so all sorts of strange line breaks  
were happening.

I've also added a new variable, org-tag-persistent-alist, which is a  
list of tags that will always appear in all Org-mode files, in  
addition to any in buffer settings or customizations of org-tag-alist.

As with line breaks, this may be a tiny personal convenience (I store  
all my GTD contexts in them so I don't have to re-enter them in every  
new org file), but in case anyone else finds it useful...

Best wishes,

Christopher
