Hello,
Commit a5686d87 (link[1]) changes several uses of #' to '. Is this org
“house style”? It disables a compile-time warning about potentially
undefined functions:
#+begin_src elisp
(defun i-give-a-warning () (mapc #'doesnt-exist '(1 2 3)))
(defun i-do-not () (mapc 'doesnt-exist2 '(1 2 3)))
#+end_src
When I’m writing elisp, this warning catches my own mistakes on a pretty
regular basis, and so I’m rather fond of it. But if bare ' is how org
code should be written, it would be good to know that.
Thanks,
Aaron

Not really. My decision for this can be sumed up like this:
#+begin_src elisp
(defun i-give-a-warning () (mapc 'does-exist '(1 2 3)))
(defun i-do-not () (mapc #'maybe-problematic-for-compilation '(1 2 3)))
#+end_src
But I don't feel strongly about that, except for #'(lambda ...) which
is just redondant, if not misleading.
2 cts,
