Hmm, the more I read the manual and your answers the less I understand. As I
said I didn't find in the manual any mention of feature you and Tim referring
to. Besides I didn't find definition of [source] code block. If Org document
has several #+BEGIN/END_SRC constructions is this the one "code block" or not?
May be they are different if they use different "language" identifier? Again,
I didn't find any definition or explanation in the manual. This is either lack
of documentation or feature of how Org deals with source blocks. In my
opinion, this is undocumented feature.
