For heavy structure modifications (like headlines removal), there is
`org-export-before-parsing-hook' and the dynamically bound variable
`org-export-current-backend'.
Another way to solve the problem could be to implement your own headline
parser:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(defun my-e-latex-headline (headline contents info)
(if (member "ignoreheading" (org-element-property :tags headline)) contents
(org-e-latex-headline headline contents info)))
#+END_SRC
Then you can either install it in the current `e-latex' back-end:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(add-to-list 'org-e-latex-translate-table '(headline . my-e-latex-headline))
#+END_SRC
Or you can define your own back-end for this purpose:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(org-export-define-derived-backend dissertation e-latex
:translate-alist ((template . my-e-latex-headline)))
(defun org-dissertation-export-to-pdf
(&optional subtreep visible-only body-only ext-plist pub-dir)
(interactive)
(org-e-latex-compile
(let ((outfile (org-export-output-file-name ".tex" subtreep pub-dir)))
(org-export-to-file
'dissertation outfile subtreep visible-only body-only ext-plist))))
#+END_SRC
You need a recent Org version to do this, though.
