Hi Chuck,

Thanks for looking into this. How difficult/desirable would it be to create
another block such as "wrap-block" for those blocks created with ":wrap"?
That way, the needed change would be rather elegant:

:line 2478 of ob-core.el:
| ;; Possible results types.
|      '(drawer example-block export-block fixed-width item
|       plain-list src-block table *wrap-block*)

What would the repercussions be if `special-block' is added to the list?


Regards,
Carlos
