Thank you, this works, with a big caveat (which makes this approach
broken for me): with the following ECM
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* No Export :noexport:
test
* Heading 1 :ignoreheading:
foo
* Heading 2
bar
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
the text under "Heading 1" is no longer present. I suspect the heading is
removed before the ":noexport:" is processed, which captures the text as
well (which is bad: the reason for the heading in the first place is to
end the ":noexport:" block). I went back to the stack-overflow
suggestion.

It is indeed a problem with the stack-overflow solution and not with
yours. I was confused when trying things out.
Thanks,
