I prefer: 1. typing my shell commands in an Org buffer, 2. evaluate the block, 3. get the results automagically inserted in the buffer, 4. (eventually, version the whole file for later comparisons when updating = the code), 5. export the whole to HTML and/or PDF. The current behavior, even if totally respectable and defendable, inhibits such a way of working: if you write (or update) a shell code, and don't see (more or less) the same things as the ones you would see in a shell buffer, then you can't use such an Org buffer -- as long as one command fails. I don't especially want you to change your position, but I'm explaining the "negative" consequences for me. Thanks!
