I love orgmode, but the inability to close an outline section without
starting a new one makes it tough for me to structure some documents the
way I'd like.

The FAQ suggests several workarounds; one is

You can create a temporary heading, such as "** Continue main section" and
> then remove it when you are ready to export.


This works, but is quite cumbersome.

Is it possible to build on this workaround with a mechanism which tags a
temporary heading as special, so that it
1) does not get exported, 2) does not appear in the TOC, 3) does not
contribute to section numbering and 4)  is displayed in a special face in
the Emacs buffer to indicate that it is a temporary heading?

Such an approach would go a long way towards making the temporary heading
workaround a bit more practical.

Thanks,
Sam
