Re: [Orgmode] [PATCH] Headlines Prefixed with a Period in org-scan-tags, Why?

[Carsten Dominik]

Hi Peter,

this is supposed to be a feature, showing that these lines are  
sublevels of a line that already matched.  I guess we can create a  
variable to turn this off - you are right that it has no functionality  
otherwise.

P.S. Do you have a copyright assignment, I forgot, but I have the  
feeling that I would like to have one ... :-)
