OK, I understand that the Cons above is a serious issue and nobody wants it. For this reason I went back to my original idea and modified the `org-fill-paragraph' function. This provides the two Pros above without having to introduce the undesired Cons. The behavior is a follows: - if \[...\] is inline, behave as before. - if \[ is the first non space character of a line and the closing \] is the last non space character of a line (possibly spanning several lines), then do not fill this region of the paragraph. Attached you find a patch with the proposed modification. I would greatly appreciate if you could consider it for inclusion in org-mode and provide feedback. I understand that if you are willing to make use of this patch, I will have to sign a copyright assignment form. This is not a problem, but please do not make me waste time with forms if you do not want to include the patch in org-mode. Please provide instructions on how to proceed. Regards, Federico.
