So I found out that there is now native support for radio-button style
selects and I have tested it and it seems to work well.
However I am missing a function similar to `org-radiobutton-value`:
https://github.com/Fuco1/org-radiobutton/blob/master/org-radiobutton.el#L111-L121
That will return the value of the currently selected checkbox by the
attached name.
So for example:
#+ATTR_ORG: :radio t
#+NAME: named_radio_value
- [ ] Value A
- [X] Value B
- [ ] Value C
Would return `Value B` for `named_radio_value`. This is useful when
creating interfaces in Org Mode and acting on those.
I know it is possible via a mouthful of lisp. But it would be nice if it
was natively supported. It would also be nice if this also worked for
normal lists, e.g. having the possibility to easily extract all selected
values.
What do you think? Is something like this already implemented, but I missed
it?
Best regards,
Terje Larsen

Check out `org-list-struct'.

not sure what you mean by return.
org core code for a while now has included a minor mode for radio
buttons. i think, however, #+ syntax and no mode is better if it
means that you can do it per list or per sublist.
that can also be used for other list features, such as ensuring bullet
style cnsistency or so.
