(attempting to do so results in the message > "Cannot add a checkbox to a description list item") Good question. I think I thought I had a good reason to do so when I implemented this rule... Oh, well. I removed this limitation in org-list.el and modified new exporters so they handle checkboxes in description lists correctly (that is by adding checkbox before the tag, not before the description). If it breaks something beyond repair, I'll just revert the patch. While at simplifying this `org-list-automatic-rules' variable, I think that `indent' and `bullet' rules should be hard-coded too. There's no real reason to make them configurable after all. Then `org-list-automatic-rules' could be set to a boolean value and renamed to `org-list-update-statistics-cookies' or something similar. Any objection to that? Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
