quicker repro is a great idea.  long ago i created a test file that
serves a similar purpose and some shell functions for variations.  i
have to try to reacquaint with all of that each time, which can be
enough of a barrier to not repro.

coupld of questions.  first, is there accommodation for accessibility?
 e.g. if a user needs a setting for large fonts, small window size to
not be larger than monitor size, any emacs args, black bg.

for these reasons, and because setup of agenda etc. takes a bit of
code, my test file is not tiny.  but maybe it is good enough to
combine user setup with the code that triggers the issue.  for
simplicity.  [in my case by variations i mean e.g. which version of
emacs, which version of org, whether my .emacs is loaded.  i doubt
this is needed, but some users might want to set such things sometimes
for comparison.  probably simplicity should be a higher priority.]

second, this is for which instantiations of org?  git yes, what about
package managers?  built-in org??
