That was what popped into my head as well - I didn't much care for the
OP's approach.  Now that I've thought about it some more, I'm not sure I
like this one much better...

...but this sounds a bit more promising: maybe LATEX_CLASS_OPTIONS can
be eliminated in favor of LATEX_CLASS with arguments:

#+LATEX_CLASS: key :class-name foo :class-options a4paper,12pt

where "key" selects from org-latex-classes (and is optional, default
"article"), class-name is optional and defaults to key (or article if
key is absent).
