Description

Does this feature exist in Emacs orgmode core?

N/A

Orgmode link

Feature value

Currently, the orgmode plugin always installs the org parser to its own package directory ([package_root]/parser/org.so). It would be beneficial to respect nvim-treesitter's parser_install_dir configuration when available, which would allow users to keep all parsers in a single consistent location. This is especially useful in setups where the plugin is being installed by nix.

Research direction

Start by locating the org parser installation entry point and reviewing how nvim-treesitter exposes parser_install_dir. Verify the behavior with that configuration set and unset; done means the org parser uses the configured shared directory when available while retaining the existing fallback location otherwise.
