David,

Thanks for your response.  What a cool and useful patch.   This adds all
kinds of cool functionality to org-mode, and in a single line!    I've had
several times I wished I could do this kind of thing.

As it is, it doesn't automate my present case much, since I'd still have to
put the macro expansion in after every headline.  Not surprisingly it won't
expand if you put the {{{property(myproperty}}} code as part of a headline
in org-export-latex-classes.  I reckon I'll have to try to do a hacked-up
latex exporter.

Also, the patch doesn't seem to work with inherited properties.  With
org-use-property-inheritance set to 't', and this input file:
----------------
* Notes taken while reading: Smith, Some-Wild-Book
  :PROPERTIES:
  :bibkey:   smith2009somewild
  :END:

This here is the key:  {{{property(bibkey)}}}.

** The Problem
This here is the key:  {{{property(bibkey)}}}.
------------------------

I get this output:

-------------------------
\section{Notes taken while reading: Smith, Some-Wild-Book}
\label{sec-1}

This here is the key:  smith2009somewild.
\subsection{The Problem}
\label{sec-1_1}

This here is the key:  \{{\{property(bibkey)\}}\}.
---------------------------

Cheers,

Scot
