I'd like to have either a macro or a property that controls some behavior
of an org-mode babel file:

#+PROPERTY: report_type All

and use that property inline: {{{property(report_type)}}} and in a source
block:

#+NAME: rtype
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results value
{{{property(report_type)}}}
#+END_SRC

And use that source block:

The report type is call_rtype()[:results raw]

But this doesn't work,

BUT THIS DOES:

#+NAME: rtype
#+header: :var prop=(org-entry-get (point) "report_type" t)
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp

And use that source block:

The report type is call_rtype()[:results raw]
