Longer answer at home.
IMHO, even when we are using the low-level #+ATTR_LATEX: :caption, I would
expect at least the
\caption{…} to be generated.
Other structures and parts of the #+ATTR_LATEX behave like that:
i.e. they put parameters inside LaTeX constructs (and be they as frugal as […].
So I would expect this #+ATTR_LATEX: :caption to ‘do something more’ that just
dropping the text there.
WDYT?
