Switch back to the startup visibility of the buffer, i.e. whatever is requested by startup options and ‘VISIBILITY’ properties in individual entries.

does not result in

* headline 1...>

as expected. Instead I get:

* headline 1...>
** headline 2.1...>
** headline 2.1...>

removing the second folded propertiy results correctly in:

* headline 1...>

This looks like a bug in the :VISIBILITY: handling!?

I am not sure whether this is a bug. But it looks like the above scenario was not considered initially. I might be wrong.

The attached patch seems to solve this problem.

* lisp/org.el: org-set-visibility-according-to-property ()

Use backward search instead of forward, so that top hierarchy gets priority.

Thanks and Regards
