### 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 https://github.com/josephwright/beamer/blob/main/base/beamerbaseframe.sty#L126
