Hi Rasmus,

I am sorry I have no solution for you just now.
This behavior you're seeking is something I long for as well, to insert 
a this frame only custom background, to be precise.

The issue lies in the org-beamer.el way of divvying up the file into 
frames (if memory servers me, it's the org-beamer-sectioning function, 
but I can be mistaken), it's a  big function that handles most of 
org-beamers functionality. For the behavior that we seek we need to 
implement a function that can encapsulate the \begin{frame} ... 
\end{frame} code. However, this is not trivial.

It has my interest, but don't expect anything useful from me in the 
short term, as I am an elisp noob and I am just getting acquainted with 
the org api.
