Carsten, thanks for this.  It works perfectly.

But this leads to me a more general question for all of you emacs
experts: comments in my org files typically consist of /less
important/ text and so I like to de-emphasise the text by changing the
face used (to a light gray, in my case, compared with the default of
firebrick).  However, for programming, I prefer the default.  Can
somebody suggest how I can have a different font-lock-comment-face for
org-mode files without making a global change?  Should I put something
in the org-mode hook?

Or even on a per-file basis?  I've tried using Emacs local variables
but haven't found the right incantation... :(

Any suggestions more than welcome!

Thanks,
eric
