** PROPOSED optional timestamp for output
Add option to place an (inactive) timestamp at the #+resname, to
record when that output was generated.
*** source code block timestamps (optional addition)
If we did this would we then want to place a timestamp on the
source-code block, so that we would know if the results are
current or out of date? This would have the effect of caching the
results of calculations and then only re-running if the
source-code has changed. For the caching to work we would need to
check not only the timestamp on a source-code block, but also the
timestamps of any tables or source-code blocks referenced by the
original source-code block.
**** maintaining source-code block timestamps
It may make sense to add a hook to `org-edit-special' which could
update the source-code blocks timestamp. If the user edits the
contents of a source-code block directly I can think of no
efficient way of maintaining the timestamp.
** PROPOSED use example block for large amounts of stdout output?
We're currently `examplizing' with : at the beginning of the line,
but should larger amounts of output be in a
