Re: [BUG] Fix for inlinetask visibility cycling causes infinite loop for

[Anders Johansson]

Something like this could work. Just ensuring that we haven’t ended back at the 
start of the current (degenerate) inlinetask. I don’t know if this would be the 
most elegant solution though. I also considered whether org-inlinetask-goto-end 
should really move to the point after the last line of an inlinetask (is this 
consistent with org-element BTW?), but that would require changes across a big 
part of org-inlinetask and probably complicate other things.
