Agree. The value of `org-confirm-babel-evaluate' can be a function. If
we do not change the function signature, there will be no way to provide
the code block vs. code cell granularity we are trying to handle.

We may, however, make `org-confirm-babel-evaluate' function value accept
an extra third argument - context ('code or 'vars). This will retain the
required flexibility without introducing an extra variable.

P.S. Considering intense discussion around the topic, what about
reverting my commit from the release? We can then re-consider the whole
design and apply something more elaborate later.
