Hello again.

I forgot to answer this question on your previous message, sorry...

I think it's a very interesting idea. I've made this sketch (at least
as a proof of concept), what do you think of the approach?

Example (and code below):

#+macro: foo (eval (format "%s and %s" $1 $2))

{{{foo(xxx,zzz\, yyy)}}}

{{{foo|(xxx|zzz, aaa)}}}

{{{foo@(xxx@zzz, sss)}}}

{{{foo|(xxx|zzz\| aaa)}}}

{{{foo@(xxx@zzz\@ sss)}}}
