Hello,
On Emacs 26, I like to enable electric-quote-mode. That provides me
“proper quotes” when writing text.
Org files are mostly text, so it’s nice that electric-quote-mode is
active there as well. However, there can be source code blocks where
I would like the “electric” functionality

Dear org mode experts,
I have noticed the following behavior that (after reading the relevant
documentation) I find at least surprising and error-prone.
With Org 9.2.3, the following two TODO items behave differently:

I'm using org's capture functionality to file new entries for my agenda.

Hi Julian,
Generally, org-babel is suited for long running computations. Its
caching can help you avoid rerunning code chunks. And long runtime does
not conflict with the idea of reproducible research, it just may be not
