Hi again

so excited over this had to ask 2 more questions ;-)

1.can that function include/link to org-id  (so that it can keep the links
even if the headers move around in/out of the files)
2.i saw there are 3 options to that helm function. can this be customized
to add more commands (can really think of which ones know but could see
potential in future :))

thx so much John as always you rock ;-)
