Looking more into this, there's already been some discussion about it: https://github.com/sabof/org-bullets/issues/18 > In any case, I don't think this belongs to "org.el" proper.

I'm fine putting it into org-XXX.el if you want. I didn't for now since it's only a few lines of code. Thanks for the comments! Alex
