I can do it, but only very ignorantly.] Nothing of this is yet working with the current org.-mode. I am building special support for this, basically the ability to provide a function that does the class support, instead of the list you normally have to provide in the org-export-latex-classes variable. And then org-beamer.el which implements this function and the minor mode. - Carsten
