Todo's from org-modern look weird in slide transitions

[MagielBruntink]

The coloring that org-modern does to todo's is not behaving nice in the slide transition animation. They start drawn out and get smaller while the text scrolls up.

Please update to master and try dslide-hide-todo. This requires the dslide-action-hide-markup action to be in dslide-default-actions list (on by default in latest versions).

I was going to say there's nothing I can do. What might work is moving the slide-in animation's line-spacing into a before-string. I think that will work.

How much is this needed? I don't really like having TODO in my pitches 🐱

I did some testing to look for a solution. To avoid stretching either the line above or line below using line height or line spacing, I tried putting a line in between the two lines. However, I can't shrink it to zero height, so the animation would stutter at the end.

Going to CC the Emacs help mailing list. Someone who understands the display minutia might know a way.

My conversation so far with the FSF has not indicated that there is any way to solve your problem.

The communication is, I must regretfully report, highly ineffective and I will not pursue this intentionally, but will leave open as it is broken and just waiting for a hack or for behavior changes in Emacs display.
