This is exactly what I do at the moment - it works perfectly, and one has control over the execution of the code blocks. One disadvantage: I have to be sure to have all code blocks evaluated.

That would be great - thanks. Is there a worg page where links to documents created using org are collected? This would be a brilliant addition! The final document looks really great!
