Consider integrating into mainline org repo? #91

I took a quick look at the source code for this and it seems that it's basically a copy/paste of org-babel-execute-src-block, with modifications for asynchronous execution. I think this would make it tough to stay in sync with org because any significant/relevant changes to org-babel-execute-src-block can break this package. I think it would make sense to merge this into the mainline so that any changes to org-babel-execute-src-block don't also need to be made here. Have you considered doing this?

I agree that it would make sense. I don't have the free time to do it myself but I'd be delighted if someone else wants to take it up.

I'm short on free time myself, but I'll see if I can find some time to do it. Thanks for being open to it!
