If I've got my emacs frame filling my physical screen and %ITEM in the left-most column, sometimes my eyes need help with properties in the right-most column to see which item they are paired with. Second, sometimes my property values are too long to fit in the column width I've allocated (e.g., %20NOTE). I was thinking it would be great if the entire value could be placed in the echo area of emacs when I move the cursor into a "cell"? As always, thanks to Carsten, and the growing list of contributors, for org-mode. Dan
