I think you've found the answer.

This Org mode code:

,-----------------------------
| #+attr_latex: :options [foo]
| #+begin_mdframed            
| Contents of box go here.    
| #+end_mdframed              
`-----------------------------

exports this valid mdframed code to LaTeX:

\begin{mdframed}[foo]
Contents of box go here.
\end{mdframed}

hth,
Tom
