Hi Scott,
this is supposed to be a *feature*. The problem is, if you show the
text below such a headline in a sparse tree, then the next heading is
still attached to the last line of the text made visible, and that
causes problems when editing. You can try this by going to one of those
headline revealed by the sparse tree command and typing
M-s show-entry
Then the last line of the text made visible contains ellipses.
Suppose you now start editing this text, move the cursor directly
before the 3 points and type a few characters. Strange things will
happen and when you later make the whole buffer visible with `C-c C-a'
you wil see that you typed somewhere in invisible text, but not where
you intended to.
Therefore, when making the text under a headline visible, I also force
the next headline to be visibile so that editing is safe, assuming
that you are intending to edit that text.
Why does it bother you so much?
- Carsten
