(A heading could be a single-section block, thus both a section and a block ? Then, how to mark a subtitle ? There should be a tag, or what ? Splitting a heading with a visual newline is not coherent, as it's not a tag. If we choose a new tag (e.g. '!'), then a heading would become a block with 2 alineas. Similar to a definition block tagged with ;term:explanation)

(*) A link may also be considered as a generated component. This choice would be consistent with the facts : a link is not only text, and it accepts parameters. Syntax : [[link page | alias]]. Pb : it makes longer a very common feature. But the real typing pb lies in the double double bracket, not in typing a short word, as there's already text to type in the address. Or what ? Side advantage : it makes brackets or braces free for something else (placeholder - variable - what else ?).
