The above feature request for `org-html-htmlize-region-for-paste' has
been sitting in the Emacs bug tracker for 10 years.  It seems like no
one on our side has taken an interest in it.

I am now closing this bug in our tracker with a copy to the Org-mode
mailing list, in the hope that someone there will be able to determine
what, if anything, should be done about this.

I hope this doesn't waste any time for the Org-mode maintainers or
anyone else; please feel free to just ignore this email if it is not of
interest.

Thanks.
