Sure, there were three patches, but the patch for the main code change
was in the message that mine as in reply to:

Thanks for the information.  So the marginfigure environment is defined
by the sidenotes package, right?  Should other environments from the
package be considered?  I suppose the main one I'm wondering about is
margintable.  Also, in the ox-tufte-LaTeX thread I linked to, Rasmus was
wondering [*] whether it'd make sense to instead have an :environment
attribute.  I _think_ the main appeal is that it would allow new
environments to be specified without tweaking org-latex--inline-image or
user-end customization.

Ah, I didn't see a reply from Bastien in my local mail or any archives.
Perhaps it didn't make it to the list or wasn't linked up to the
original mail.
