Subject: [babel] is there a chance to split arguments in src block calls or noweb syntax

Hi all,

Splitting header arguments for source blocks into different lines works 
very fine,
(and leads one to put more and more args in the header... )

Is there a chance or trick to do similarly when calling such src blocks?
Somehow like in shell scripts a backslash at the end of a line will 
signal continuation?
(example see below)

Any suggestions or workarounds or best-practices to make the call lines 
better readable and editable are welcome!

Kind regards,

Olaf




What I mean:

#+NAME: namedSrcBlock
#+HEADER: :var arg1="val for arg1"
#+HEADER: :var arg2="val for arg2"
...
#+HEADER: :var argN="val for argN"
#+BEGIN_SRC
...
#+END_SRC

results in long call lines for #CALL: or noweb syntax hard to edit

#+CALL: namedSrcBlock(arg1="long argument value",arg2="even longer 
argument value",...,argN="many args later ")
<<namedSrcBlock(arg1="....",....,argN="...")>>


How to split those long lines, so that each arg-value pair stands on its 
own line?


The 'orgish' way would be sth like this, I guess:

#+CALL namedSrcBlock
#+ARGS: :arg arg1="..:"
#+ARGS: :arg arg2="..."
#+CALL_END

in noweb ref might be
<<namedSrcBlock(arg1="long argument value",\\SPACE
                    arg2="even longer argument value",\\SPACE
                    ... \\SPACE
                    argN="many args later")>>

But I did not find such anywhere.
