Count me confused again: what's the feature? I'll go looking for the
discussion I guess.

OK, I just did an update, did emacs -q with a minimal .emacs and the
ATTR_LATEX line above works. Presumably it would also work with my
previous org-version, but I was trying things in a different order:
if I rearrange the line to

 #+ATTR_LATEX: :width "" :placement [htb!] :options scale=1.5  

I get the "Wrong argument type" error in the current version as well. So
I guess :width has to be after the :options ?!? I don't quite understand the
rules I guess.

Org-mode version 8.0.3 (release_8.0.3-193-g334581 @ 
/home/nick/elisp/org-mode/lisp/)

Very helpful: thanks for the elucidation!
