[O] Function to look-up a certain property
Hello, I am looking for a function that starts at point and walks up the outline-tree searching for property P. If P is defined the function returns P's value, otherwise nil. If The top level headline does not have a property P, the function looks for #+P between the first headline and bob. Is there something in org's code base that does this? Regards, -- Alexander Baier

Is there something in org's code base that does this? (org-entry-get (point) P t) However, it will look for #+PROPERTY: P val instead, and it isn't limited to data before first headline.
