Hi Nicolas,

I think a plist would work fine, indeed.

Very interesting.  I did not realize that #+header: could apply to
elements other than babel blocks.  (Babel blocks are all that is
documented in the manual, for example.)  But a quick experiment shows
that they can.  I think #+header with a plist can accomplish all of what
I wanted.

So, if this is a reliable component of org syntax, I will focus on
documenting it in the manual.  If you like, I will also remove the
references to block parameters on worg (or you can do it if you=E2=80=99d
rather, since I think you originally wrote the syntax document).

Thanks,
