Sorry, perhaps I was not clear: (1) and (2) do not need to be separate
documents. I think both can be described in a single document, my main
point was that the current org-syntax.org is from none of these points
of view.

Great, thanks for volunteering. I think this is something you should
perhaps do with a long time Org user, ping-pong'ing with commits, not
alone.
Nicolas, what's your take on this?
Would it be okay for you if we rename worg/dev/org-syntax.org to
something like worg/dev/org-elements-syntax.org or would that be
confusing?
Would you have any advice on how to tackle worg/org-syntax.org in a
generic and useful way?
