It is discouraged but not disallowed.  I use this:

# eval: (esf/execute-startup-block)

where 

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
  (defun esf/execute-startup-block ()
    (interactive)
    (org-babel-goto-named-src-block "startup")
    (org-babel-execute-src-block))
#+end_src

which will execute any org src block named startup whenever I visit the
file (but with confirmation required).  It is incumbent on me knowing
that the src block is safe to execute and I only say yes for files that
are mine.
