#+attr_latex: :options test
#+begin_aside 
random 
#+end_aside

Options are read via 

        (org-export-read-attribute :attr_latex special-block :options).

As to whether special blocks should support options via a keyword like in
your example, I do not know.  FWIW ox-html also reads attributes for
special blocks via an ATTR_BACKEND line.
