Opps, yes it looks like these options are completely ignored in Octave 
even though they are documented. In fact these options don't even exist 
in Matlab..

Try the attached patch. With this I see that

plot (1:10)
legend("data")
legend("right")

now works as expected.. The patch is against 3.1.51+
