I just pinged that thread again. Note that I strongly support adding
doct to Org.

I cannot comment on the lexical binding thing. I do not really know
lexical binding internals enough to judge what kind of problem that
patch is trying to solve. However, Bastien commented on the second
patch. I do find it useful as well. I think the only problem with that
patch is that it is not listed in updates.orgmode.org and Bastien missed
your last reply.

Best,
