Well, I will have to chime in with a contrary view.  I like using
headlines to define blocks, and I use blocks on almost every frame.  I
have the following reasons for preferring a headline approach:

- the proposed approach does not easily (at all?) cater for blocks
  within blocks

- ease of hiding of content: org for me is still primarily an outliner!

- being able to re-arrange content in a frame quickly (M-<up>, etc.)

- within frames, there is no other use for lower level headlines.  Using
  these for blocks seems appropriate.  What else could they be used for?

Obviously, I would adapt to whatever is provided.

Thanks in advance in any case!  I look forward to beamer support in the
new exporter.
