Re: Org-Babel SQL block: Narrows to buffer in background when pressing TAB

Still running into this issue often, but I tried some techniques others
have recommended to debug other issues:

Summary:
Pressing TAB in an org-mode sql src block opens the src in a background
buffer and locks the src block

- Behavior not reproducible when using emacs -Q
- Behavior not reproducible when running emacs in terminal with emacs -nw

Suggests behavior is not directly associated with org-babel as originally
thought. Not sure where to look yet to continue though. Is there a way to
capture all functions called when reproducing the behavior in the GUI?

Is anyone able to reproduce the behavior as a quick sanity check?
