In 8.2, org struggled with many of my documents, some of which are very large. Most, if not all, of the performance problems I was having have disappeared since then (thank you Nicolas!). I cannot attribute the improvements directly to the move to a fixed structure for headline meta-data but I can easily believe that this move has contributed due to anecdotal experience with complex sections within my org files. This does not mean I am against your suggestion of a variable controlling this behaviour. Maybe implement it and post a patch for the community to try out? I am perfectly happy with the current format, however, so would be unlikely to try it. (sorry) -- : Eric S Fraga (0xFFFCF67D), Emacs 25.0.50.2, Org release_8.3.2-209-gba4d33
