hm, I could think of a special syntax, like :tangle results in the
current behaviour and :+table concats values. That way it's up to the
user to express what she wants.

Hm, the property values can be functions that get evaluated to get the
actual property values, can't it? I'm not sure though if something like
:flags (get-em "flags" '("-more" "-values")) is so much nicer to write.
Maybe it is, esp. if you want to change the base flags for a ton of
items. Today is teaching tuesday (even if it's wednesday ;)), so I'm a
bit short on time. But I will try that approach later this week and see
where that leads to.

Thanks
