Hi Torsten,

I don't think this is about plain text vs à la XML (because XML and
friends are plain text too) but about whether we should allow a new
type of block to keep non-human-readable stuff out of the way.

One thing I don't get is how these blocks would be more hidden than
normal blocks or drawers.

Another thing I'm not sure about is what kind of technical stuff
you have in mind.  I see what you mean for UUID, but note that this
is not a problem of the :ID: property itself (which can hold a human
readable value), but of the value of this property when using UUIDs.

Speculating about Org possibilities is one of the fun here, so I
would not mind reading a more precise example.

But in general, as one can more or less guess, I'm more of a less
person.  :)
