Hi Nicolas,

Can you explain what you mean about using CUSTOM_ID in the context of
org-collector?  Maybe I misunderstood something.  Do you think the reason
that a table can't be generated from my example code is that org-collector
is somehow trying to expand the macros when the table is generated?  I
assume that the correct behavior should be for it to *not* expand macros,
and just pass them through verbatim into the table-fields.
