Hello, Alan, and gang.

Yes, it does, yet a bit unexpectedly.  I see your usage of "/" to
control the "my" name space.  I also saw ":" and "::".  Maybe I should
change my habits, as I prepend "fp-", which is a bit dumb.  I wonder if
some common wisdom developed in that area, which I should follow.

It also helps as telling that I'm abusing of global-set-key for my Org
mode key bindings, while I should be more particular, as you do. :-)

As for the real problem, my suggestion was really that TAB (and not `C-c
t') be used for such a purpose, in Org mode proper, as it seems to me as
the natural thing to do, and might be generally useful.  However, I'm
not fully sure the suggestion is necessarily a good one, as TAB also has
special meaning here and there (I'm thinking of tables).  Maybe TAB
would be good enough nevertheless to be worth amending?
