Okay, thanks. I figured at least a few people would prefer to keep the
plain/text portion in org mode syntax and why I went with the configuration
option route.

At this point, I'm not sure if there is any further hacking left to be done
to the original patch I sent? Are we okay with just leaving the two options
of 'ascii and 'org? 

Thanks,
