Hi Dirk,
If you would like to pop to a code block *with* the noweb references
expanded try the `org-babel-expand-src-block' command, which is bound to
"C-c C-v v". This view of code blocks is not editable however because
there would be no way to propagate edits back into the original code
blocks -- consider an edit taking placed on the boundary between two
code blocks, or multiple nested noweb references.
There has been some interest in propagating changes back from tangled
code to Org-mode blocks (search these list archives for the term
"detangle") however such functionality is currently not implemented --
an `org-babel-detangle' function does exist but is not fully functional.
Best -- Eric
