Hm. Well thanks for thinking about it anyway. It is really just a slight 
annoyance, but as the number of org-buffers increases - they seem to fit more 
and more purposes the more I use org, esp. for quick write-ups where this issue 
annoys me the most - this annoyance increases also ;)

But then it is just so nice to use org anyways, I gladly accept this sort of 
behaviour.
