Hi Carsten, Ivan.

Thanks for the feedback. The issue that Ivan mentioned does look important
and I'll try to fix it asap and incorporate the check.
I'll also look into the rehilighting thing, I am not sure if that's
possible. I guess it also would be nice to scroll not just to the right
page, but also to the right line in the text.

As for the "as-" prefix I just assumed that this is legit because the
package was already present in the org-mode.

Cheers.

- Dan
