Thanks for this, Rasmus.
Grant,
If ox-ravel is something you are interested, I recommend that you
tryout the `ravel-lang' branch. In addition to the examples in the
master branch, there is `demos.org' with some simple examples.
As to Thorsten's query:

`----
There is some discussion of this in the README.org...
If you already use org-mode:
You get access to Sweave, knitr, slidify, pander, et cetera.
Their `chunk' options (akin to babel header args) can be easier to use
than header args for complicated displays.
Dependency aware caching of R objects is available in those engines and
its lack in Babel [1] is a serious impediment to working with long running
computations.
bioConductor vignettes can be authored in org-mode and exported for a
suitable vignette engine.
If you already use Rmarkdown, etc, you get the ease of editting and
working in org-mode - cycling visibility of headlines, lists, src
blocks, and results, and of storing results inline, previewing latex
fragments, and all.
HTH,
Chuck
[1] Yes, I do know that there is a :cache header arg.
