I'm not sure that't the problem though: the org-without-partial-completion
macro is called in a couple of places, once in org-remember.el and twice
in org.el. I'm not sure how many people still use org-remember, but I suspect
quite a few. The macro basically says: execute the body while mmaking sure
that partial-completion-body is off during the execution. At least, that's
the intent but I haven't thought through the quoting change that Paul made.
The calls:
o org-remember-apply-template: called in the g or G case to complete tags.
o org.el: in org-icompleting-read.
o org.el: in org-set-tags *around* org-icompleting-read.
The last one seems superfluous at first sight, but I haven't thought about
it yet.
In any case, these seem fairly common situations so I think it is likely
that the macro has been called hundreds of times (over the whole org population)
without ill effects.
OTOH, partial-completion-mode is called explicitly in org-refile-get-location,
like this:
(partial-completion-mode nil)
Could it be that it is really meant to turn *off* partial completion mode?
In which case, it would be better to call the org-without-partion-completion
macro here to do the work.
In any case, this explicit call seems to be more problematic than the macro.
After all that's what Seb hit.
