I agree with Marcel on this. If org is supposed to help get /to/ the
final version of a document, then it should support the (possibly
inconsistent) structures that can appear in all the in-between steps
after conceiving of the document and before the final version.
The workaround I use is to use lists instead of headlines. The
problem then becomes the extra work of turning lists into
headines+text later.
Cheers.
