I have asked the same thing earlier.  Eric Fraga suggested the
following:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** Previous frame
   text here

#+begin_latex
\end{frame}
\againframe<2>{overview.fig}
\begin{frame}<handout>
#+end_latex

** Following frame
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

For what you are doing I'd might use only environment.  That way you can
have text in frames which are not displayed on frames.  I use the
following snippet 

I use 
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq org-beamer-environments-extra (quote (("onlyenv" "O" "
    \\begin{onlyenv}%a" "\\end{onlyenv}"))))
#+end_src 

And do something like: 
#+begin_src org
* section
** Frame
*** Frame text
....
*** Extra text
    :PROPERTIES:
    :BEAMER_env: onlyenv
    :BEAMER_envargs: <beamer:0>
    :END:

some more text
#+end_src 

And you can even use \only and similar in frames and it will work.

Still, what you are asking would be nice but unless things have changed
only a fragile solution exists.
