[Just a note for the unwary: the syntax above is not quite correct -
John gives the correct syntax below in his example.]

I think that placement works fine for figures, but not for tables. In

suspect that it never existed. So unless I'm mistaken, it seems that
tables never got the placement treatment that figures did.
