Personally, I never figured out how to use yasnippet.  M-TAB is for
completion of new lines, not for continuation of ongoing work.

So say you do
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage{biblatex}
Now you need to add a bib resource.  It's nice to quickly be able to get
a new #+LATEX_HEADER-line.  It's specific, but it's meant as a
continuation of the M-RET logic.

OK.  Hopefully some more people will chime in so we can make an educated
guess.

Sure. . .  I'm not sure expected behavior is what I'd like here.  But
that's the initial point, I guess.

Thanks for those.
