The regular expression was not optimal, and if there was a horizontal
rule, search would not start from the beginning of the buffer but from
after the rule!

When an agenda custom command has an empty string as MATCH element, so
far this would lead to a meaningless search using an empty matcher.
Now and empty (or white) string will be interpreted just like a nil
matcher, i.e. the user will be prompted for the match.

Add a variable org-complete-tags-always-offer-all-agenda-tags, which makes org
complete all tags from all agenda files if non-nil. Usually, setting it
locally to t in org-remember buffers is most convenient.
Avoid closing the currently clocking entry when clocking in the same task
again. Leave the clock entry open until some other task is clocked in.
This allows us to clock in tasks with hooks that are called frequently without
generating lots of short sequential clock entries for the same task.

If there was a title set for a column, org-agenda-colview-summarize would look
for the title instead of the property, resulting in empty summaries. This is now
fixed.

Make org-agenda-columns-summarize work properly with the new summary types.
It was assuming the values should be summarised by adding them together. It's
now updated to use the summary functions in org-columns-compile-map, and also
handles summary types with calculated values properly.
Leave calculated columns blank if there is no underlying value.
Don't return zero if a property is missing.
Changes are also applied to xemacs colview.
Exporting drawers was not really supported, now it is.
Drawers that are selected for export are formatted using the function
specified in the variable `org-export-format-drawer-function'. If
that is nil, the default `org-export-format-drawer' will publish the
drawer as a colon example, i.e. verbatim and in fixed-width.

Saving the edit buffer is achieved by calling org-edit-src-exit,
saving the org buffer and returning to the edit buffer with
org-edit-src-code. When those two functions are used in this context,
they should not attempt to restore the saved window configuration, nor
alter the saved window configuration.
