I have just tried the latest maint version and it works as I described
in my first mail. The background specified in `org-block' is applied to
the language named begin_src blocks, too. The language specific
fontification of the foreground faces is applied as well. I really like
the feature.

In the master branch it works only for unnamed begin_src blocks (and
quote, verbatim, and example).

I like the behavior of the maint better, but in case that `org-block'
was really meant to apply only to unnamed src blocks + quote, verbatim
and example, please change the documentation string of the `org-block'
from "Face text in #+begin ... #+end blocks." to something more
descriptive.

Is it possible to change the background of the src blocks in a different
way?

Thank you,
best regards,
