I meant these strings that I find in parse-trees that apparently do have a
parent-proptery:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(headline ... :title (#("topic number one" 0 16 (:parent #1))))
(paragraph (:begin 114 ...)
#("Hello subtopic number one " 0 26 (:parent #4)))
#+end_src
I concluded that they are the secondary values listed here:
#+begin_quote
org-element-secondary-value-alist is a variable defined in `org-element.el'.
Its value is
((headline . :title)
(inlinetask . :title)
(item . :tag)
(footnote-reference . :inline-definition))
Alist between element types and location of secondary value.
#+end_quote
plus the actual (string) content of paragraphs (e.g.).
I can change the :parent attribute of the headline containing the above
:title string (or of the paragraph containing the above content string)
with `org-element-map', but those :parent references inside the strings
remain untouched.
I can access them by writing some code, of course, I only wanted to know if
`org-element-map' might be able to access them out-of-the-box somehow.
