I will probably be able to start working on this next weekend (tho there
is some stuff that can inevitably slow me down this week).  In the mean
time other people can comment both on this and on where to put the
resulting feature.

Okay, I'll read up on these, both code and manuals.  So we've agreed
that what we want is a new header argument, ‘:edit-vars’, whose value is
a form similar to a varlist, where

- a form (var val) means bind var to val in the editing buffer,

- a symbol var means bind var in the editing buffer to the buffer-local
  value of it in the relevant x.org buffer, as in (setq
  (make-local-variable var) (with-current-buffer "x.org" var))

Do you confirm?  Also, what do you think about :edit-bindings or
:edit-locals instead of :edit-vars? :var is a completely different
thing, and :edit-vars may cause confusion, given the similarity of the
name.
