Re: org-cut-subtree should respect org-ctrl-k-protect-subtree

[Dan Drake]

I agree, a function that examines the "protect subtree" variable and
performs the logic is best. I can work on that.

What do you think we should have for the new name for
org-ctrl-k-protect-subtree? Just "org-protect-subtree"?

How do we handle renaming the variable? We'd want some way of
deprecating the old one and so on.
