[Patch] Pre-/postpend arbitrary LaTeX code to a section

[Juan Manuel Macías]

Hi all,

I don't know if the following scenario usually appears in the workflow
of other Org users as well. Otherwise, I think this patch could be
ignored.

In my workflow I often need to pre- or postpend some LaTeX code
immediately before or after a section. Consider the following example:

------------------
* A section

Lorem ipsum

#+latex: \foo

* Another section

Lorem ipsum
-----------------

The \foo command affects the second section, but for Org it belongs to
the content of the first section. If I comment this section out or mark
it as non-exportable, then the LaTeX code has no effect. I think a
simple solution could be to have the PRESEC AND POSTSEC properties to
prepend or postpend arbitrary code to a section. These properties could be
extended with PRESEC+ and POSTSEC+. An example of use:

* Section
 :PROPERTIES:
 :presec:  \begingroup\foo
 :postsec: \endgroup
 :END:
...

Best regards,

Juan Manuel
