I wanted to comment earlier but it slipped my mind, sorry about that.

I am not sure if this patch is quite corect. It removes the let bind and
instead conditionally uses setq to bind it to t. From the docs I see the
variable becomes buffer local when set in any fashion, but does that
still mean it is okay to use setq?

I can imagine in a complicated publishing project, an org file might
need to set the value to something. I suppose this will override any
such custom config. Is my analysis correct? It might be worth thinking
about before applying the patch.

Is a conditional let binding possible, it might be the safer choice in
that case.

Thanks,
