Its simply a convenience method that I can probably hack for myself, but didn't want to if it already existed. Its simply when I'm drafting I tend to work in subtrees, and it becomes (for my purposes) quite unwieldy when working with large trees (as I tend to). The indent when I'm working with the narrowed buffer is a waste of space, and it also makes it difficult for me to work out what level I'm working at with a simple eyeball at the structure. However I can quite cheerfully see that this is not something most people would want/need. > But maybe a narrowed tree should be considered as a selected region by > default... Yes it probably should.
