Oddly, this doesn't work for me at the moment. I'm running
release_8.0-pre-344-g882454, pulled this morning. (It /could/ be just
me; I seem to have some unresolved installation issues.)

When I export, both the defaults /and/ the "options" are applied,
resulting in duplicated attributes, like this:

  <table border="2" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="6" rules="groups"
  frame="hsides" border="2" rules="all" frame="border">

and on Firefox, at least, the values defined the second time are
ignored.

The documentation currently up on Worg
(http://orgmode.org/worg/org-8.0.html#sec-8-3), which seems to say we
should now use plists for HTML attributes. But that currently doesn't
work for me either.

Sorry if you've heard this before, but this doesn't make sense to me as
a new syntax:

  #+ATTR_HTML: :options attribute="value"

It's not just more verbose than the old way, it's redundant to say both
"attr" and "options", since all it does is set attributes.
