While implementing a recent patch about drawers insertion, I realized my
current view about drawers had a flaw. Indeed, while I had correctly put
aside properties drawers, which are very different from regular drawers,
I had overlooked special drawers like LOGBOOK and CLOCK.
Those drawers are different from regular drawers, since they are
attached to an headline (this is not the case of a RESULTS drawer), and
as such should be classified in another category.
Therefore, I suggest the following fixed behaviour with regards to
export for drawers:
- Properties drawers :: Still ignored in export, independently on "d"
option or `org-export-with-drawers' value. Obviously, back-end can
ignore this specification, but it should be followed by major ones.
- Special drawers :: Not exported by default. Though, their export can
be configured with a new "sd" option item (i.e. "sd:t") or
`org-export-with-special-drawers' variable. This category only
includes LOGBOOK[1] and CLOCK drawers at the moment.
If their export is activated, the special
`org-backend-format-drawer-function' (i.e.
`org-e-latex-format-drawer-function') can allow to tweak their
output.
- Regular drawers :: Exported by default. "d:nil" turns that off. This
category includes RESULTS drawers and every user created drawer.
`org-backend-format-drawer-function' still can help tweaking their
output. Thus, it can be used to filter out some types of drawers.
With that model, drawers will be able to fill a niche by allowing to
hide data in an Org buffer while still wanting to export it.
As a reminder, currently with "d:nil", drawers are redundant
with #+begin_comment blocks, and with "d:t" they are redundant
with #+begin_example blocks. "d:'(some names)" is just a mix of comment
and example blocks.
Note that it has the same advantages as your suggestion.
What do you think?
Regards,
[1] Or whatever the user specified in `org-log-into-drawer'.
