Hey Tom,

Good idea. I'll definitely use
that. `org-babel-do-key-sequence-in-edit-buffer' returns nil only if it
is not in a code block[1], so we could use this in
your code above:

    (or (org-babel-do-key-sequence-in-edit-buffer (kbd "_"))
        (org-self-insert-command 1))

Footnotes:

[1] To be more exact, it returns nil if org-edit-src-code doesn't
generate an edit buffer.
