Hello,

Indeed, but every variation needs to be handled specifically, so it
ultimately counts as a different syntax.

Yes, please. This is a matter of design, not implementation. I'd like to
stabilize Org syntax as much as possible.

As a rule of thumb, I would only consider syntax changes only for:
1. broken syntax
2. missing feature
3. syntax hindering compatibility (e.g., conditional syntax)
