For me, bold and alert are 2 different beasts. Some beamer styles even display
them differently (different colors, for example). Better would be not to mix
them, IMHO.

I'm not sure I understand the point but...

OK. Thanks.

Whether in org-mode or in org-beamer-mode, when typing `e' on the second
column, it opens the tag selection interface in the minibuffer. But, here,
what I'm trying to add is a property, not a tag...?

Pressing TAB allows me free edition, but what's inserted at the node is a
tag...

PS- An idea: wouldn't it be good (*iff* easily feasible) to load
org-beamer-mode when opening an Org file whose LaTeX class is beamer?

Best regards,
