Ah, good (from my perspective, anyway, I was getting concerned about
my setup).

I'm sorry, you've probably explained this many times before and I should
go read the archives. 

But what is it that nees to be supported, and why couldn't you just pass
through *whatever* :attribute value pair the user puts in attr_html? I
really like the switch to plist style, but I think the combination with
:options and literal syntax is confusing.

I'd be happy to, but I need to understand the above. On what basis
should attributes be selected for either plist style or the :options
bucket, and what does the exporter need to know about them in order to
support them?
