Again if you read the help:
When two universal prefix arguments, only tangle blocks for the tangle file
of the block at point.
So if you give two universal prefix arguments and issue org-babel-tangle while
you are at a code block with the tangle file /home/zeltak/.i3/config, it will
only tangle code blocks with that particular code block. I think that is what
you want. I'm sure you can modify the code I showed you to implement this.
Another way to do this is just `org-narrow-to-subtree` to narrow down to that
subtree and and then just tangle the whole thing.

You can `:tangle no' on the source block to exclude it from tangling.
You can even tangle one source block to a different or as many files
as you like during tangling.
