org-mode buffer, meaning it gets read-only, and inside it you can't modify
anything besides applying org commands such as expanding/retracting/sparse tree
etc. I'm suggesting this because I have a section on the top of my gtd file that
has an introduction to the system, link to related files etc, and often I find
myself accidentally writing characters or inserting line breaks and other
things. Not essential, but a nice-to-have feature.Thanks,Marcelo.

Hi Marcelo,

Maybe an idea. To prevent accidental changes to your introduction text.

You could try and put the introduction into a separate org-file and then include
it into your gtd org-file using:

#+include foo.org

Hope this helps,
Renzo
