I will definitely do so. 

That said, I have essentially taken an 'example driven approach'. I have
taken user requests that have occurred on this list [1] (which seemed
one-off or export oriented) and asked the following questions -

1. Can I use Babel Src blocks (atleast in theory) to achieve this? What
   changes are required in the Org/Babel core to do it?

2. Can it be expressed in a syntax that is no different from one that
   the org users are already familiar with.

I will followup on my earlier posts with greater clarity ... 

Footnotes :

[1] I have provided links to example user stories in all my earlier
posts. They, IMHO, are potential candidates that could guide one to
expanding Babel in little (if not profound) ways.
