to be clear, i am not suggesting violating outline mode's inability to continue text after children, or violating levels.  let me redo.

i am ONLY saying i sometimes have the need to yank into the middle of the text of an entry, even if what i am yanking is an entry.

it was probalby confusing that i provided 2 possibilities.  one was removing stars, which leaves remaining questions about any descendants of heading 1.  forget about that one.  the other was merely to yank heading 1 in the middle of heading 2's text.  both same level.

so here i go again with new decription: i am taking an entry and putting a whole other entry into the middle of it at the same level like this:

===

* a new idea i had

regarding snicker snacks

* jabberwoky

some sophomoric comments on a poem

more sophomoric comments

===

becomes:

* jabberwoky

if nobody else has this use case, then i would have to modify heading 1 before cutting and then paste it.  becauyse otherwise in my settings for whatefer reason heading 1 ends up after heading 2.
