My Beamer presentation needs the following: 

    \author[short-author]{Really \\\\long \\\\author}

Emphasis on the [short-author] parameter. I've been through the manual but I don't see a way to accomplish this sort of thing with export (there are other fields that do something similar, too). Simply adding brackets to my #+AUTHOR: line doesn't seem to work. Am I missing something?
