Aloha Suvayu,

This looks like an improvement to me.  I'd be interested to hear what
Nick and Seb might have to say.  They often catch things I miss.

If you don't get other comments, I'd encourage you to submit this as a
patch (I think this requires [PATCH] in the subject line) to see what
Carsten and crew have to say about it.

Thanks again for finding this solution to specifying the font size for
floating tables on a table-by-table basis in LaTeX export.  I'd been
looking for your solution, and for Nick's solution that works on a
per-document or buffer basis, for many months without success.

All the best,
Tom
