Great! That must be a new addition that I missed. It is not perfect though,
as I use a variable font for org-mode, which is inherited by the embedded
source code block when I turn on org-src-fontify-natively . Is there any
way of preventing that so blocks are always in e.g. Inconsolata?

I found that the block background color may be changed by
org-block-background which is nice to make a visual distinction of source
code sections!

Regards,
Dov
