That's awesome, I will try this.



 I am thinking about providing this feature with ignoreheading
 environments. I.e.,


Sounds interesting but I'm not totally clear on what ignoreheading
environments are for.

Thanks!

Hello,

 I have a lot of slides where I want to incrementally show arbitrary

 I haven't been able to find any comprehensive org-beamer docs, and I've

--8---cut here---start-8---
* Text   B_ignoreheading:
  :PROPERTIES:
  :BEAMER_env: ignoreheading
  :BEAMER_act: 2-
  :END:

  contents
--8---cut here---end---8---

would provide

\begin2-{onlyenv}
contents
\end{onlyenv}

Though, I'm not sure about which environment to use in this case:
onlyenv, visibleenv, another one. Any comment about this?

Not to my knowledge, but I didn't test the new org-e-beamer exporter
for this feature.  Did you?  

I'm unsure your use-case is very common, if it it, hopefully someone 
can implement this in the next exporter.

I know about the shorthand syntax for bullet lists:

** 1- Point 1
** 2- Point 2
** 3- etc...

But again, this is for content outside of lists.
