Thanks, and sorry for not being specific enough if the first case.

Yes, and no, but mainly yes.

The AUTO part should be completely autonomous to the setup you
referred to.  The AUTO part is always discarded.

It changes behavior for your setup in that you can define a LANGUAGE
that isn't a known abbreviation.

Given your points the attached is a much more robust version of the
patch, so thanks a lot.  Examples, omitted from the commit message:


Behavior changes:
1.  =("AUTO" "babel" t)= works like ("AUTO" "inputenc" t) in
    =`org-latex-default-packages-alist'=. If a LANGUAGE-cookie is 
    present this will be used, otherwise the default,
    =`org-export-default-language'=  language is choose.
2. If #+LANGUAGE: mylang then then \usepackage[mylang]{babel} in
   output.

Examples: 
 1. Assume ("AUTO" "babel" t) is a member of
    =`org-latex-default-packages-alist'= and default language is en.
    If =#+LANGUAGE: fr= is in the document AUTO is replaced with french.
    If =#+LANGUAGE: mylang= then AUTO is replaced with mylang. 

2. Assume ("AUTO" "babel" t) is not a member of
   =`org-latex-default-packages-alist'= and assume LATEX_HEADER:
   \usepackage[english]{babel} and LANGUAGE: mylang.  Then the
   exported result is \usepackage[english, mylang]{babel}. 
   If \usepackage[AUTO,english]{babel} then 

As for 'robustness', the following case is handled correctly (from
emacs -q with default org-latex-default-package-alist):

#+LANGUAGE: da
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage[AUTO, danish]{babel}

#+LANGUAGE: danish
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage[AUTO, danish]{babel}

#+LANGUAGE: fr
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage[AUTO, danish, english]{babel}

#+LANGUAGE: de
#+LATEX_HEADER: \usepackage[danish, english, AUTO]{babel}

Cheers,
Rasmus
