The name was probably picked in analogy to the corresponding emacs-lisp function `load-file' which also loads lisp files only. The latter is much too well entrenched to ever consider renaming. The org-babel version is certainly not, so renaming it is a possibility, although IMO it's a hassle without much payoff: C-h f org-babel-load-file tells you what you need to know. Nick
