This is the expected behaviour (except for the file name), and what I
get when I run C-c C-e C-s l o.


What I receive is something like this:
[...]
The whole first level of this outline is pointless.


Looking at the code, I don't understand how you can get this outcome.

You can set specific export properties for a given subtree, for example:

* Subtree
  :PROPERTIES:
  :EXPORT_OPTIONS: options list
  :EXPORT_TITLE: Another title
  :EXPORT_FILE_NAME: another file name
  :END:

Root heading when exporting sub-trees

[Michael Dauer]

Org mode version 9.5.2 (9.5.2-ge7ea95

When I export a subtree I normally want to produce a document for the topic
of the subtree. So I would expect that the contents of the subtree would be
exported with the heading as title (and maybe file name) and the children
promoted to level 1.

What I receive is something like this:
Title: Title of all topics
1. Topic
1.1
1.2
1.2.1
1.2.3
1.3

The whole first level of this outline is pointless.

What is the best way to change this behavior? I mean in
configuration/patching not by putting the same export properties
everywhere. But identifying the relevant export properties would be of help
of course.

Thanks, m
