Thank you for implementing those changes. I agree with you on point 3 - it's cosmetic (although it does convey some information), so if it's not trivial to implement, I'm glad you've passed on it to devote time to more worthy items. And I'd vote for leaving the Date+time editor's <> brackets alone in that case. Thank you for Org-mode and the herculean effort you put in to accommodating requests, yet somehow managing to avoid polluting the clean design and orthogonal functionality. -- Chris Randle
