My original version did that. It might be nice to still do that
selectively if the user adds a SRC or EXPORT block.

The case this is addressing is if there are multiple newlines after the
org element we're wrapping (one of the clauses in the test shows this).
The skip-chars-backward is there to go back over multiple newlines, so
that the #+END_FOO string always comes right after the end of the text.
