My recommendation is to always name code blocks: then the corresponding results
blocks are named as well, tying the two together; subsequent evaluations
will just refresh the appropriate results block without introducincg new
results blocks. This is not as much of a problem as it used to be, but
naming code blocks is still a good guideline, imo.

Other than that, I think that's the best that you can do.
