I would support that, since the current regexp limits the function's use
unnecessarily to text-modes.
I have no strong argument (real use-case) for making
`org-element-at-point' work with programming-modes too, except the
'principle of least surprise' - I was surprised that my formerly working
`org-dp-wrap-in-block' suddenly did not work anymore when playing around
with it in the *scratch* buffer and spend some time debugging my code,
only to find out that there was no bug but the input from
`org-element-at-point' was not what I expected.
