This (and the rest of what you said) is very well taken.

I share your concern that adding features to an already rich feature suite will 
make babel very difficult to penetrate.

p.s. Extracting code from src blocks need not depend on `org-babel-tangle' and 
friends. Custom exporters have to potential to render code using attribute keys 
and other export features.  And such exporters have the virtue of not adding 
complexity to the org code base.
