Re: [BUG] hyperbole action key on path name results in org-element-cache warning [9.6-pre (release_9.5.5-997-ge58bd0 @ /home/grfz/src/org-mode/lisp/)]

Hi Ihor:

So if we want to determine the Org type of an element outside of an Org buffer (when using org-type minor modes for example), how would we change this 'let' code:

 (let* ((context
         ;; Only consider supported types, even if they are not
         ;; the closest one.
         (org-element-lineage
          ;; Next line can trigger an error when `looking-at' is called
          ;; with a `nil' value of `org-complex-heading-regexp'.
          (org-element-context)
          '(clock footnote-definition footnote-reference headline
            inlinetask link timestamp)
          t))
        (type (org-element-type context))

     ...)

Thanks,

Bob

This is a hyperbole bug.
The latest version of Org no longer supports calling
org-element-at-point in non-Org buffers. Previously it worked by
accident and did not throw an error.

I recommend using regexp constants from Org to match against org-like
constructs outside Org mode buffers.
