[Orgmode] Org-mode version 6.30c; org-remember does not honor `org-odd-levels-only' setting

[Anupam Sengupta]

Hi Carsten,


*Problem*: `org-odd-levels-only' is not honored in a remember buffer for
creating child entries.

I have been using the clean outline view using the `org-odd-levels-only'
setting (actually via the per file #+STARTUP: odd setting) to simulate
the indented view of the outline (info "(org)Clean View")

This works perfectly in the main buffer for the org files - where
creating a child entry using M-S-Right (`org-demote-subtree') indents
the entry by an odd number of stars so that the indentation is preserved
and the outline hierarchy is correct.

However, in a org-remember buffer, trying to use the same function to
create a child entry after the main headline does not honor this
setting, and uses the default behavior of incrementing the stars' count
by 1.

I.e, instead of this happening in the remember buffer:

* TODO Parent Entry
*** TODO The child entry /after M-S-Right/

what actually ends up happening is:

* TODO Parent Entry
** TODO The child entry /after M-S-Right/
  ^
  |
  +---- Notice the missing third star which should have been created


This causes problems in the actual org-buffer later on after the remember
note is filed - as org-mode seems to get confused on the outline levels.


I have added the org-mode settings using the `org-submit-bug-report'
with some trimming of private settings that probably are not relevant
(e.g. the `org-agenda-custom-commands').
