Of course! I'm just a little unfamiliar on how one coordinates active
collaboration via mailing list :-)

Anyways - I did it, and it took less time than I thought

I've modified the `merge' function within `org-babel-merge-params' so
that the main logic now accumulates a list of potential candidates that
could be the :any keyword, and selects the last added candidate as the
match.

The first two patches are very minor, simply adding
tangle-exclusive-groups using the existing code templates. The last
patch is the merge function rewrite.

It all seems to be passing tests, though I would like to add my toy.org
file to the org testing framework at some point.

Best,
