> Lately I have been seeing a lot of bug reports sent using the
> org-submit-bug-report. The reporter usually reports the bug from a
> session they have been using with their full blown customisations. And
> often they are requested to reproduce the bug with emacs -Q. So I
> thought it would be easier if the manual mentioned this little detail.
> A patch is attached.
