I am certain this is a silly thought, one of those I could spend enough
hours on to complete several projects!

I just realized that my process for making up headlines gets clumsy when
I'm actually trying to write a narrative.

A related "problem" or issue is the need to extract headlines from a
several page essay when rewriting or reorganizing.

It occurs to me that a function is needed, maybe two: one to take the
current headline (while typing it) and duplicate it in a new paragraph in
the body.  Perhaps it would, at some point of absurdity, be possible to
also automatically set a tag to not export the headline.

The second function would be to duplicate the first few words of a line and
make a headline above.

I think I can easily make an elisp function to do these things. Does
something smarter already exist?

Thank you,

Alan Davis
