Hi again,

Just for the record, I figured out the solution to this. I had to modify
the function to run org-mark-subtree on each element before calling the
export function - this way, the whole selected region is exported,
including the headline.

If anyone is interested, you can see my final leanpub-export function here:
https://github.com/zzamboni/dot-emacs/blob/master/init.org#publishing-to-leanpub

Best,
--Diego
