 The new paramater ~:dbconnection~ allows to specify a connection name
 in a SQL block header: this name is used to look up connection
 parameters in ~sql-connection-alist~.
+
+*** New ~LATEX_ATTR~ ~:scale~ supported by the built-in LaTeX exporters
+
+The builtin ~org-latex-export*~ exporters now accept and use a
+~:scale~ attribute, which scales an image by a given factor.
+
+This attribute is wrapped adound the ~scale=~ parameter of LaTeX's
+~\\includegraphics~ (bitmap images) or a ~TiKZ~'s
+~\\scalebox~. Therefore, its value should be some string palatable to
+LaTeX as a positive float Its default value is an empty string
+(i.e. disabled).
+
+This attribute *overrides* the ~:width~ and ~:height~ attributes ;
+therefore, while it can be given a default value, this should be done
+only under exceptional circumstances.
+
+#+begin_example
+
+#+name: Beastie
+#+caption: I think I saw this curious horse already, but where ?
+#+LATEX_ATTR: :scale 2
