Dear Experts,

I'd like to make a suggestion/feature-request for people who write dynamic
blocks (which are very cool):

 1. It would be really handy to have a parameter of the form :tname <NAME>
which puts a #+TBLNAME: <NAME> into the top of the table created by a
dynamic block. This makes the dynamic table easy to reference from other
things.
 2. It would be even better to also provide a parameter of the form :dtname
<NAME> which puts a #+TBLNAME: <NAME>-<DATE> into the top of the table where
<DATE> is today's date.
 3. It might be handy to have orgmode provide a predefined set of standard
parameters and tools for writing those at the start end of the table so all
dynamic block writers can get the benefit of nifty parameters with minimal
effort.

Thanks again for org-mode,

-I.S.
