Hi list,

Is it possible to get the text of the Org heading, but without the [n/m]
cookie (or its percentage equivalent)?

What exporter are you using? I understand that your question/issue isn't specific to an exporter, but based on the exporter, this task can be very easy. 

Or should I just massage the
result of org-get-heading myself?

That seems to be the only way at the moment. 

If the latter, isn't it a bug?  (I have a use-case where this is
/really/ necessary.)

That seems to be a grey area.. some folks might actually like to retain that todo meta data.. or could be that that meta data doesn't yet have an associated org-element (internal parser).
