While I still think `org-accumulated-properties-alist' is the most
powerful solution -- as it is the only solution which allows a subtree
property block to extend rather than overwrite a file-wide property.
I've been thinking a little bit more about these issues and I'm
returning to a previous suggestion...

Do we still think that using #+KEYWORD+: lines is an ugly way to specify
multi-line values for keywords.  I think this has the advantages of
simplicity, intuitiveness (its use is obvious once you see it), and
generality (i.e., this could be used to allow multi-line tblfm lines).

Just another thought -- Eric
