Good catch Christian, I get the following behavior, currently seems the
property-block specification overwrites the global property.  I'll have
to update my patch to append at the subheading level as well.

As for variable handling, I think the solution is to ensure that on the
code-block side of things, a var string like "foo=3, bar=2, foo=1"
results in,

foo=1
bar=2

that is, subtree variable definitions will pre-empty earlier definitions
of the same variable..
