This is a bug.

Actually, that's not the spirit. The idea is to define some widely used
attributes that will be written directly like:

  #+attr_html: :border 0 :width 400

Then, :options attribute is used as a bucket for every other attribute,
since we cannot support all of them.

Unfortunately, no attribute is current recognized in table HTML
transcoder. It needs to be improved.

If Someone provides a list of such attributes, I can implement it.
