[ I suspect this should use "\\.org\\'".  ]

What does this `let` do exactly?
I searched docstrings and Texinfo but it doesn't seem to say clearly what
this does.  The `find-file-literally` is documented to set this var in
the resulting buffer, but that's something different.

I guess a first step would be to add a comment here describing what this
code hopes to obtain with this `let-binding`, but maybe Emacs itself
should describe the effect of such a binding (or some other way to get
the same effect).
