I do have (setq require-final-newline t) in my config, which prevents
this.  What happens is this: if you don't have the config above, the
folding will get wrong and display the "2" from the end of the buffer.

If you are before the "..." ellipsis, you are on a first level
headline and M-RET will insert a first level headline.  Otherwise you
are on a second level headline ("test2") and it will insert a second
level headline.

Yes.  Maybe M-RET could/should handle this corner-case but since
`org-insert-heading' is deserving a full rewrite, I'm not going to
try to handle this corner-case myself... let's just keep it in mind 
when doing the rewrite.  Thanks for spotting it,
