Subject: Support showing stars as pretty bullets

Hello,
I've written this patch that makes use of prettify-symbols-mode to show
the stars in org headings as nice UTF bullets. There's already
org-bullet-mode[1] but that seems to have been abandoned, plus it isn't
included in org mode itself.
The one bug right now is that it'll show an asterisk as a UTF bullet if
it's _anywhere_ on a heading line. Is there an easy way to check if a
character is a part of the beginning stars? If this is something you'd
be interested in adding to org-mode, I can fix this part before the
change gets applied.
I've checked it out with and without org-indent-mode and hiding leading
stars. Everything seems to work well for me.
I've already signed the FSF copyright assignment papers.
Please cc me on replies since I'm not subscribed to the devel list :-)
Thanks,
Alex
