I am surprised by this message: like I said earlier when replying to
myself to the same message as the one to which you are replying, I
discovered the :EXPORT_TITLE: (headline) property, which does exactly
what I was looking for.

It is as if you missed that message of mine (or did not understand
what I wanted to say) AND forgot or don't know about the
:EXPORT_TITLE: property.  As I find it rather unlikely, I guess you
are thinking of something else, which is beyond me.

At any rate, there is no need for anything new in this repect, even
for me.

Best.
