The new export engine has support for captions and labels for almost any
element, through the use of affiliated keywords. Thus, the following
special block will have ":caption" and ":name" properties attached to
it:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+caption: Here is /something/.
#+name: something
#+begin_something
A special "something" block.
#+end_something
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Now, it doesn't mean that it will do anything during export, as
back-ends can choose to make use of those properties or ignore them.

With regards to the previous special block, the e-latex back-end
currently makes use of the :name property, but ignore the :caption one.
Though it's not hard to support this by modifying accordingly the
`org-e-latex-special-block' function.


Regards,
