I understand.

For now, I use this basic snippet when defining emacs code block in my
configuration files, JDL-Debug is a flag I put to true when I want to debug my
Emacs configuration.

# -*- mode: snippet -*-
# name: code org for emacs configuration blocks
# key: cemacs
# --
#+srcname: $1
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(if JDL-Debug 
 (message "start $1"))
$2
(if JDL-Debug 
 (message "End $1"))
#+end_src
