Actually, I think the manual is deficient in this case: you have to
infer the proper format from an example in the beamer section (which is
not even the section where LaTeX_CLASS_OPTIONS is defined): that's
better than no example at all, but I think it would be better to add an
example in section 12.6.2, "Header and sectioning structure". I would
encourage you to submit a doc patch.
