Thanks Nick, I confirmed later that `C-c *` worked over region for me too.

I don't think that's right - at least, when I tried it with a region, it
worked. I just didn't know about it (or, more likely, didn't remember it)
before Christian mentioned it.

The docstring for the function says:

,----
| org-toggle-heading is an interactive Lisp function in
| ‘../org-mode/lisp/org.el’.

| (org-toggle-heading &optional NSTARS)

| Convert headings to normal text, or items or text to headings.
| If there is no active region, only convert the current line.

Is transient mark mode enabled? I think it's enabled by default
nowadays, but maybe you turned it off?
