Hi Carsten,

So it remains a kind-of specialistic thing.

no, I wouldn't say so. textarea seems to have become quite popular in
HTML online documentation. Apart from all the copy and paste stuff,
textarea can do a virtual wrap or give you a horizontal scroll bar. This is nice if you have literal text with long lines that can or should not
be wrapped but should also not exceed you layout's horizontal limits.
I'd guess this is the main reason, why textarea is widely used to give
literal examples.

OK, so maybe this is more main-stream than I thought.  And, as Sebastian
just reminded us, we do have switch processing in examples already
in place.

So I will put it in, just using a "-t" option at the example (or src)
block, and -h and -w options for width and height (cannot use -r for rows,
because -r is already taken.....)

Eric, no action for org-blocks necessary.

Nevertheless, the textarea block is certainly just a nice-to-have and
not an absolutely necessary killer-feature.
