Thanks for these hints!  When I follow that route I'll have to do
more work I guess:
1. either I have to provide two versions of my org-latex-classes (one
   for numbered and one for un-numbered cases)
2. or I have to provide a filter or sth similar to replace sections
   with mysections, correct?

That's why I would prefer to follow Nick's suggestion.

Regards,
Andreas
