Yeah, you should do it with the package subfigure or subcaption.  I
use the latter mostly, recently.  Do /not/ use the package subfig!  Is
there support for this now?  I have no idea.  I've usually just added
it manually, with #+LATEX-lines.  But I agree that support might be
nice.  It could probably be handled how matrices are handled
(i.e. with no newline between the lines tables and #+LATEX_ATTR lines
they are put into the same math environment).  

I don't know how often people requires side-by-side floats, but for me
it would certainly be of interest.  I lack time experimenting with it
right now, though.
