Hi William, thanks a lot for bringing this up.
Of course, Org would benefit from code cleanup and code refactoring. And yes, we can collectively push toward (1) modularizing Org a little more, (2) making Org features better interact with Emacs core features and (3) integrating some of Org's features into Emacs core as Emacs features. IMHO the good examples you give fall into one of the category above, and I think such efforts are likely to happen in that order: 1, 2, 3. The better way to make this happen is to start a discussion with a patch explaining how it makes 1, 2 or 3, then discussing the patch here on this list - the smaller the better. If you cannot make a patch, first discuss your idea, and once the implementation seems clear, call for help by using a mail header: X-Woof-Help: Help with making X a new module Thanks, -- Bastien
