This patch implements reading American dates, like
2/5/3 --> 2003-02-05
2/5 --> ????-02-05
Is also fixes a bug that would force the current year when reading a
date like 2/5 (American) or 2-5 (ISO), and in this way would prevent
`org-read-date-prefer-future' to do its job. This bug was reported by
Lukasz Stelmach.
Also get rid of a bug: as timers where not properly canceled,
`org-timer-show-remaining-time' was not giving the proper result.
Thanks to Frédéric Couchet for this catch.
The `org-clock-set-current' and `org-clock-delete-current' functions
handle this variable. The variable only stores the last clocked in
entry, not the history of clocked in tasks.
This can help to get out of an inconsistent state produce for example
by viewing from the agenda. Reported by Matt Lundin:

The coding system of the LaTeX class will now only be set to the value
corresponding to the buffer's file coding system if the class
specifies \usepackage[AUTO]{inputenc}. Any other value for the coding
system will not be modified.

This patch introduces a new user option to select this behavior.

The variable `org-clock-out-when-done' can now also be a list of
states. When the TODO state of a task changes to one of these states,
the clock will stop running in that task.
This extension of the logic was a proposal by Ricard Riley.

Also, when using C-c C-o on a headline of get a list of links in the

by different applications.
These were requests by John Wiegley.

This does now work, but only if the user has no template defined for

It is not customizable, like for the agenda....
