Re: [O] Continuation of main section text after subsections

[Jeff Horn]

There are interesting ways to break away from traditional document
structure using inline-tasks, which (without keywords) are really
inline "headlines" that don't break structure.

See the discussion which starts here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.orgmode/40597

It branches a bit, but you can use gmane's search to track the
discussion if you want more info.
