The value for :float is not binary. Tables accept :float multicolumn
and :float sidewaystable. Images accept :float wrap and :float
multicolumn. Src blocks will accept :float multicolumn.

I didn't mention it since I focused on the syntax changes. Though, the
patch comes with an org.texi update where these attributes are
described.
