Hi Bastien,

What is the primary reason to use a hard-coded org-outline-regexp and
org-outline-regexp-bol instead of the buffer local outline-regexp? Is it
to clear up any confusion about whether the header regexp can be
customized? One of the negative effects is (as reported in another post)
that one can no longer use org-global-cycle in other modes (e.g.,
Auctex).

Perhaps for the relevant functions (e.g., org-overview) we could
construct org-outline-regexp-bol from the a bound version of
org-outline-regexp (i.e., one that uses the buffer local value of
outline-regexp). 

At the moment, this FAQ is obsolete:

Best,
Matt
