Subject: Feature request: Add "SHORT_TITLE" metadata field for LaTeX exporter.

Hello all,
In a number of LaTeX commands (as in \title), there is the following format:
\title[<short version for footer>]{<long version for titlepage>}
This format is also supported in Org at some keywords, (e.g CAPTION).
From the docs [1]:
"""
Optionally, the caption can take the form:
#+CAPTION[Caption for list of tables]: Caption for table.
"""
and this is exported to the following in LaTeX:
\caption[Caption for list of tables]{Caption for table.}
I assume that adding this functionality to the general #+TITLE field,
might be problematic, since it will involve a number of non-LaTeX
exporters.
So, would it be possible to add a new metadata field #+SHORT_TITLE, to
replace this functionality?
For example, the following org code:
"""
#TITLE: This is a very long title that I don't want to see in my Table
of contents
#SHORT_TITLE: This is better
"""
would render into:
"""
\title[This is better]{This is a very long title that I don't want to
see in my Table of contents}
"""
Thoughts / ideas? Did I miss something that already does this?
Cheers,
Georgios
P.S. My motivation for this, is that I use Org-Mode to create Beamer
slides, and this always messes up the way the title is shown in the footer.
