While I am not technically knowledgeable with org-mode's internals, it surprises me that lists and section headings are treated differently for org-indent-mode. I guess I won't be able to use lists for a while... (I suppose the other option is to use real indentation, manually, to break up a long list line into smaller chunks, but that solution to me is just ugly and hacky. It would be great to get uniform behavior for both sections as well as lists.) > Secondly, org-indent-mode is not indenting anything: it only fakes it. > While this is fine for headings, this causes problems with lists, which > are depending on real indentation.
