You are right. That's what I had in mind. Though noweb <<name()>>-style
references may need to be transcluded without expanding - they may be
computationally expensive.

No. I did not imply that source files will be transcluded into the .org
file. Currently, .org file is the source of the code (unless you use
org-babel-detangle). I was thinking that C-c ' will trigger generating a
temporary prog-mode buffer (according to .org file!). It is not a good
idea to associate the temporary buffer with actual file because tangling
may involve expanding noweb references. Noweb sometimes require long
computations or even access to remote servers. I think that it's better
to trigger tangle process manually by default.

Best,
Ihor
