In a completely empty buffer, org-insert-heading inserts a newline
before the first heading. However, if there is (e.g.) a single space
character in the buffer (after point), the heading goes on the first
line. I admit it's trivial, but that doesn't seem right -- there
presumably isn't a reason for the newline in the first case and not in
the second, right? (My preference would be no automatic blank line.)

Hi Dan,
this was a stupid hack to get the headline away from the first
buffer line which can cause problems in Org under some circumstances
which are hard to consistently remove. It looks a the empty buffer
case because this is what will happen when people open a new buffer
and immediately create a headline in this way. When there is already
something in the buffer, even a space, I am assuming the user wants
to be in control.
If it is not bothering you a lot, I'd like to keep it this way.
