I for long have defined my own LaTeX class (fp.cls file). It is quite easy
to handle options in there.
Now I use it in place of article or beamer etc.

\documentclass[slides]{fp}

for a beamer org document

\documentclass[exam]{fp}

for a pdf exam document


and so on.

I don't think that it is very effective to store a huge amount of TeX code
in org documents.
You end up in cuting/pasting these headers lines in each line.
