You need the code blocks to be wrapped into comments for it to work.

Regarding reliability, it does work well on small examples. I remember having
had really bad results with my huge .emacs file, but hadn't any time to debug
the problem -- try to reproduce -- at that time.

So, when you do it, please keep a backup of your original Org file. It's
safer.

But, if there are bugs, they should be clearly identified, and fixed...

Best regards,
  Seb
