Thanks a lot for the suggestion, here is what I ended up doing:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun as/delete-ignored-heading (backend)
"Remove every headline with a tag `ignoreheading' in the
current buffer. BACKEND is the export back-end being used, as
a symbol."
(org-map-entries
(lambda ()
(when (member "ignoreheading" (org-get-tags-at nil t))
(lambda () (delete-region (point) (progn (forward-line) (point))))))))
(setq org-export-before-parsing-hook '(as/delete-ignored-heading))
#+end_src
It works great.
I have a followup question (purely from an aesthetic point of view, the
code works fine). I see that a label is still generated in the LaTeX
file (there is a "\label{sec-1}" with just the "\maketitle" above it).
Is it expected?
Thanks again,
Alan
