I am pretty sure this isn't possible. The headers get overridden by the most local settings. There isn't a way to concatenate them. In some cases there isn't a way to figure out what you want, e.g. if a heading property said ":tangle no" and your header said ":tangle yes" it would not make sense

My 2¢ on this topic: 1. org is an excellent tool for writing. I cannot consider writing with any other tool these days. 2. texi is an excellent tool for reading/browsing documentation. Likewise, I cannot imagine doing so in another tool (in the Emacs sphere). We should find a way to
