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.

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
mean refile to the clock. However, I forgot to actually test the
value of the prefix arg...

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