I don't get it.

Why not add the `draft' arg to the end of the `&optional' args? Won't that 
preserve backward compatibility?

I maintain derived backends that use the `post-process' arg and are 
distributed on github. So now I will need to make them version aware 
and/or provide version specific branches so as not to break when used with 
older org-mode versions, won't I?
