Hi Edward, 

I agree that issue #414 had become too long. As I already said 
<https://github.com/leo-editor/leo-editor/issues/414#issuecomment-345764489>, 
the proper course of action was to split that issue in various other small 
issues, but so far only #588 was created and I think that there's at least 
one other related issue which was not addressed at all: unified cross-uA's 
searches of nodes. Do you want me to create a new issue for it?

And as a side-note: at the end it's not clear to me what's going to happen 
with org-mode's drawers...? Will they be imported as uA's or just plain 
text in node's body? It's not something really important for me, but just 
got somehow confused by your last comments.
