[PATCH] Add customization to fontify TODO headlines

[PATCH] Add customization to fontify TODO headlines

[Terje Larsen]

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 450 bytes --]

This adds a feature similar to the org-fontify-done-headline, but
instead for the TODO headlines.

This is enabled with the boolean customization org-fontify-todo-headline
and can be themed via the face org-headline-todo.

I was missing this when I wanted to distinguish more clearly between the
TODO headlines and the other headlines (more so than the highlighted
TODO keyword(s)).

Hope someone else finds this useful.

Best regards,
Terje Larsen

Applied. Thank you.

I added a TINYCHANGE cookie at the end of the commit message since
I don't know if signed FSF papers already. If you did, please let me
know.
