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??
