You are right. I missed that \\ is also a newline for LaTeX export. Another possibility is re-purposing counter definition from ordered lists. Currently the "\\[@[0-9]+\\]" is used to force item number in ordered lists: 1. item 5. [@5] another item 6. next item However, it is unused it unordered lists. We might define a note as a unnumbered list item with [@note]: - [@note] This is note In addition, all the list items in :LOGBOOK: drawer may be considered notes (to avoid a need to change the current format of the automatically added notes). What do you think?
