Thanks Karl.  That's what I was thinking, yes.

DJ's flag Idea might be good.  What could it break?
How could it trip you up if you forgot it?
How could it be made unforgettable?

Flags like that would be helpful...  [DJ]"For starters, flags are one-bit values."
OK, right, then adding attribs would help.

And now we have yet another development task identified with no one to code it yet...
allow attribs to be converted to flags for certain keywords, (which would be disallowed
