According to [1], "#+OPTIONS: subject:nil" should suppress printing the=20
#+TITLE at the top of the letter. It seems that the previous bug prevents=20
the expected line "\KOMAoption{subject}{untitled}" from being generated.

Okay... so, what if I set "#+OPTIONS: subject:untitled"? Then I get=20
something like:

\KOMAoption{subject}{untitled}
\setkomavar{subject}{The title}

.. and LaTeX prints "The title" in bold, above the salutation.

If I remove the #+TITLE line (or comment it out), then the exporter assumes=20=

that the title should be the file name, minus the .org extension. This=20
conflicts with [1], which claims that the default subject is an empty=20
string.

I can suppress the subject by providing an empty #+TITLE line, but the=20
documentation suggests that this should not be necessary.
