Thanks for your reply. I think a global option would be useful because I mightn't know in advance whether I'd need slides for particular headings or not. I'm thinking of a use case where I have produced a long LaTeX article and have selected certain tags to do so, and I would build a beamer presentation to brief it out by adding a :briefing: tag to a subset of the exported article headings (so the beamer slides are more concise).
