Bastien,
Thanks for the summary. There is still one problem, I think, with #+AUTHOR:
\author{one \\ two}
and
\author{one \linebreak two}
behave differently (the \linebreak has no effect), so if one wants the
first behavior, the exporter's penchant to change \\ to
\\textbackslash{} will not allow it. I'm not sure why \title and \author
behave differently: I guess it's because \author is expanded inside a
\tabular, whereas \title is not.
Thanks,
Nick
