One thing that I couldn't figure out is how to get rid of the width
specification altogether. I can change the default
[...,width=0.9\textwidth] with something like
:width 10cm
but if I scale the image (presumably by trial and error until
it looks good to my eye), then I want to turn off the width
option altogether (afaict, latex treats [scale=1.5,width=10cm]
as [width=10cm] - scale is not considered at all, hence my desire
to turn off width.)
I tried
:width nil
and
:width
In these cases, I get the default. The code looks like this
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(width (cond ((plist-get attr :width))
((plist-get attr :height) "")
((eq float 'wrap) "0.48\\textwidth")
(t org-latex-image-default-width)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
and in these cases the plist-get returns nil, so the t clause
triggers.
I also tried
:width ""
which fails with a
Wrong type argument: stringp, nil
in this call (and I haven't chased it further):
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(attr (org-export-read-attribute :attr_latex parent))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
Is it possible to eliminate ``width'' from the options?

I don't understand: what do you mean? AFAICT, you *have* to say
:placement [htb!]
*including* the square brackets, because the first clause of the cond
triggers and that does not include the square brackets:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(cond (place (format "%s" place))
((eq float 'wrap) "{l}{0.5\\textwidth}")
((eq float 'figure)
(format "[%s]" org-latex-default-figure-position))
(t ""))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

OTOH, here you don't want to include the square brackets because the
format *does* add them. That seems to be a slight inconsistency.
