Just my .01 cents...

For Latex stuff I'm using just
#+HEADER: \input{preamble}
and have my preamble.tex in the working directory. (For Beamer stuff it
goes in a LATEX_HEADER).

Changing that to
#+HEADER :inputs '("preamble")
well, would be a matter of taste.

However, adding the :dir option to the equation could be a game-changer for
me (at least)

Best, /PA
