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.
All the colors used now relate on the color wheel. The blues have been
shifted to 15% less saturation than greens, and reds are shifted to 10%
greater saturation. The colors are very close to what was there before,
but now they harmonize much more closely.

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.

This lets you see how long has passed since the specified timestamp property
each entry. The three operators (@min, @max, @mean) show either the age of the
youngest or oldest entry or the average age of the children.

This bug resulted from a recent patch which made a prefix arg of 2 to

Hmm, maybe the outline behavior of hide-subtree has changed???
Anyway, we now just use our own function for this.

RET will only do this if the cursor is on the link and
`org-return-follows-link' is set. `C-c C-o' will work anywhere in the
line.
Requested by Chris Leyon.
With these changes, if org-src-preserve-indentation is non-nil, or if
the block has a -i switch, then the behaviour of org-exp-blocks is
altered as follows:
1. Indentation is not removed before passing the block contents to the
block-transforming plugin.
2. The result returned by the plugin is not re-indented.
The following keys now do archiving
C-c C-x C-a archive using the command specified in
`org-archive-default-command'
This variable is by default set to `org-archive-subtree', which means
arching to the archive file.
The three specific archiving commands are available through
C-c C-x C-s archive to archive file
C-c C-x a toggle the archive tag
C-c C-x A move to archive sibling
These bindings work the same in an Org file, and in the agenda.
In addition:
- In the agenda you can also use `a' to call the default archiving
command, but you need to confirm the command with `y' so that this
cannot easily happen by accident.
- For backward compatibility, `C-c $' in an org-mode file, and `$' in
the agenda buffer continue to archive to archive file.

These changes provides frame / window management preferences for the
edit buffer generated using C-c ' on a source code block. Preferences
are specified by a new variable org-src-window-setup, which is based
on org-agenda-window-setup and has the same four options:
current-window, other-window, reorganize-frame, other-frame. These
behave as follows:
* current-window
The edit buffer appears in the current window.
* other-window
`switch-to-buffer-other-window' is used to switch to the edit buffer
in the same frame.
* reorganize-frame [default]
The current frame is reorganized so that it is split between the
source code edit buffer and the parent org buffer.
* other-frame
The edit buffer appears in a new frame. That frame is deleted when
exiting the edit buffer with C-c '.
In org-edit-src-save, point and mark were being restored inside the
save-window-excursion. As it happens, although mark is lost, point
nevertheless retained its position with switch-to-buffer being used to
switch between org and edit buffers, as is currently the
case. However, the failure to restore point correctly is exposed if
more complex options controlling window and frame management are
provided for the edit buffer.

Now the recommendation is to use clock persistence only for the
history, and to use John's code for resolving a clock that has been
idle (either because the user stopped working or exited Emacs).
This happens regardless of types and presence of source-code blocks
in the buffer. Previously interblocks were only exported when
source-code blocks of the same "type" were present in the org-mode
buffer. This decision was placed around the assumption that
exporting small inline non-block objects only made sense in the
presence of some related block type. This assumption is
artificially limiting and is now removed from org-exp-blocks.
