There’s no consensus. As you mentioned there's noexport tags. ox-koma-letter relies heavily on tags as well. UNNUMBERED is a property... There’s no official way to use ignoreheadings. The closes thing is the ox-extra in contrib where Aaron curates a couple of hacks (the ignoreheadings one by was first posted by Eric Schulte, I think when he wrote about his thesis in Org). That filter also uses a tag ("ignore"), but it would be trivial to change to a property, if you prefer. Eventually, it would be nice to add a ignoreheading property and a "insert-just-before-heading" property (e.g. for @@latex:\clearpage@@) in ox. We are not there yet.
