Would be great to have a decent Beamer template to use for slides

Babelbib doesn't seem to support ordinal numbers by default for Finnish (for example edition field). Here's a fix that I made based on some example:

\declarebtxcommands{finnish}{
  \def\btxnumeralshort#1{
    #1.}
  \def\btxnumerallong#1{
    \ifnumber{#1}{
      \ifcase#1 nollas\or ensimmäinen\or toinen\or kolmas\or neljäs\or viides\or
        kuudes\or seitsemäs\or kahdeksas\or yhdeksäs\or kymmenes\else
        #1.
      \fi
    }{#1}}
}

Given the following bibtex

@inproceedings{bennett1991genetic,
author = {Bennett, K. and Ferris, M. and Ioannidis, Y.},
title = {A Genetic Algorithm for Database Query Optimization},
booktitle = {Proceedings of the fourth International Conference on Genetic Algorithms},
year = {1991},
pages = {400--407},
publisher = {Morgan Kaufmann Publishers}
}

the following citation is generated

[BFI91] Bennett, K., M. Ferris ja Y. Ioannidis: A Genetic Algorithm for
Database Query Optimization. Teoksessa Proceedings of the
fourth International Conference on Genetic Algorithms, sivut
400–407. Morgan Kaufmann Publishers, 1991.

'Teoksessa' might not be the correct word in every case, and it definitely sounds a bit out of place. Is the word necessary at all?

The title page resets the page counter. For example if you have an abstract after the title page, both have the page number i.

Break long URLs for instance in references by adding the characters - and _ as additional break markers.

The titles of the articles in the references section don't honour the original case of the titles. All letters after the initial letter seem to get converted into lowercase. I know that there's a dirty hack for forcing the title case in the bibtex file, but I don't think that's scalable or the right way to do this. I don't know if this is something that can be fixed by this template, but if it can be fixed, please do so.
