I do similar and hadn't realised that there had been any breaking
changes as, I guess, I haven't had to create a new slides since the
orgframe change came through.  This is a rather serious breaking change
and would affect hundreds of slides for me (two modules I teach not to
mention research talks).

closely so cannot say whether this would achieve what motivated the
changes.
