Hello,

Unfortunately, Emacs manual thoroughly uses em-dash. We have to bite the
bullet, IMO.

I will change " -- " into "---" if there is no objection.

OTOH, Emacs manual seems to use title case at every level, barring some
exceptions (e.g., "Terminal emulator").

Maybe we should stick to title case to every heading that belong to
a menu, i.e., we can use sentence case for "notoc" headings.

Since Texinfo node names are derived from headlines, it means external
references to Org manual, if such thing exists, are going to break.

WDYT?
