Thanks for discussing this with me, Nicolas. I appreciate there may be
technical complexities involved. Could we special-case allow PROPERTIES to be
the *very last thing* in an entry? I don't need it to float anywhere else. I
just like it to be at the end.

But it wouldn't be the true PROPERTIES, would it? Most of my entries look like
this (and I have many thousands of them):

I suppose I've just become familiar with seeing :PROPERTIES: as the "period"
at the end of the entry, and I'll like to keep it there if we can devise a
technical answer that does not make life more difficult for you.
