My solution is akin to yours except that I alter the org file
instead.  I have the following lines in my org file:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
##+LaTeX_CLASS_OPTIONS: [bigger]
#+LaTeX_CLASS_OPTIONS: [handout]
#+latex_header: \mode<beamer>{\usetheme{progressbar}}
#+latex_header: \mode<handout>{\usecolortheme[rgb={0.5,0.5,0.5}]{structure}\usetheme[secheader]{Boadilla}\usepackage{pgfpages}\pgfpagesuselayout{4 on 1}[a4paper,landscape,border shrink=5mm]}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

and all I do is delete the extra # on the first line and add one to the
second line to switch from generating handouts to generating my
slides.  Remembering to hit C-c C-c, of course, before doing the
export.

I use very different themes for handouts (e.g. grey colour theme) and
for slides but those lines need not change.

Of course, by default, the export generates the same file name in both
cases.  For my use case, this isn't an issue.  I generate the handouts,
copy the resulting PDF file to the web server and then generate the
slides which I will actually present.

HTH,
eric
