Sure. I didn't suggest that there should be a default (although as
others have suggested, a default of "beamer" would be reasonable). My
point was simply that generating a latex file with no "documentclass"
line doesn't make much sense and this omission should be caught by the
exporter. It would help any user more quickly figure out what is wrong
with the org file being exported. Well, it would have helped me! ;-)
Arguably, this is not a problem with the beamer exporter but the latex
one instead.
In any case, I'd like to say thanks! I had a presentation to give
earlier today and wrote it from scratch using the new exporter. After
the initial hiccoughs (as documented on this list) and my not having
noted earlier that the ATTR_* syntax had changed (e.g. :options
width=... for images), everything went like a charm.
