Have you read the beamer documentation? After reading about
shrink, do you still mean to apply this evil thing? :)

Yes, I agree this is what the documentation looks like. However, the
imlementation of org-beamer.el only looks at the local properties.
TO speed up processing, Org grabs all properties at each headline
and stores them - without inheritance.

Could you please set in .emacs
(setq org-beamer-inherited-properties '("BEAMER_envargs"))
and then try the following experimental patch
