Yasnippets would help in filling the file with the repeated code - but if I 
want to change e.g.
"some text" to "some more text", I still have to do it manually. Nevertheless, 
if I could define
the org section once and repeat it with different variable values, this would 
enable me to change
it only once.

Cheers,
