This may not be the solution you are looking for, but maybe a good source of ideas: https://github.com/doublep/eldev Another idea: Just use a (configurable) function name or source block name to look for in a document. Then some magic function (say org-compile-document) can look for a custom function/block inside the document (e.g. look for a marked source block) and execute it, if found. If no custom function/block is found, some default action will be executed (e.g. ask user what to do, run pre-configured default export action etc.). -- Until the next mail..., Stefan.
