Hello,

Two small questions, with that minimal example:

#+begin_src org
,* Database
,
,** Back up the database
,
,Create a backup file of the existing database:
,
,#+srcname: backup-db(dbName, dbBackupFile)
,#+begin_src sql
,BACKUP DATABASE dbName TO DISK = 'dbBackupFile'
,go
,#+end_src
,
,** Back up the database
,
,Create a backup file of the existing database:
,
,#+srcname: backup-db :var dbName :var dbBackupFile
,#+begin_src sql
,BACKUP DATABASE dbName TO DISK = 'dbBackupFile'
,go
,#+end_src
#+end_src

1. I read on http://orgmode.org/manual/var.html that the second way to pass
   arguments is "more natural". Though, "nobody" "never" uses it in all the
   examples published on this ML. Why? Are there still subtle differences, or
   could such come in the future that would make one choose one over the
   other?

2. In both cases, the variables are not exported to HTML (and LaTeX?), making
   the readability of such a documented code a bit difficult. Feature or bug?

Best regards,
  Seb
