    Summary description: A LaTeX class for producing presentations and slides

    Announcement text: ----------------------------------------------------------------------

    ### Added

    - doc: added sentence about limitations of xelatex
    - added `bgopacity` option to `beamercolorbox` and
    `beamerboxesrounded` for transparent background drawing
    - allow optional argument for the default `block begin`,
    `block example begin` and `block alerted begin` templates

    ### Changed

    - unified usage of `(sub)section in head/foot` template in headlines
    - simplify decision tree for `\beamer@howtotreatframe` (see #874)
    - added `\maketitle`, `\title`, `\author`, `\institute` and `\date`
    to the exceptions for `ignorenonframetext`
    - avoid frame breaks between block title and body for rectangular blocks
    - added `\gdef\@currentHref{#2}` to labels (see #917)
    - fine-tune vertical space around section title in miniframe headline
    (close #895)

    ### Fixed

    - fixed problem if inmargin theme is used with the `usepdftitle=false`
    class option (see #885)
    - fixed spacing problem for right-aligned frametitles without
    background colour
    - fixed missing `\newline` if ragged2e is used together with
    beamerarticle (#900)
    - defined `\fnum@table` to avoid breaking longtable (#905)
    - fixed: other sections would show the template for "miniframe in
    other subsection" instead of "mini frame in other section"
    - fixed unstable text position in sidebar theme by compensating
    for the space automatically inserted after the frametitle in
