I don't think that this is a good argument against it as long as you
don't force small projects to use it. I would see it as an extension to
the current gschem -> pcb flow. If you don't specify anything, you get
the default net attributes as defined in PCB.

If you go high frequency it's getting important. Related to that are
termination requirements of a given net, carefully select whether the
termination needs to be close to the driver or close to the receiver.
Typically this is a problem a tool can't handle.

I second that, and I read the response from DJ: You don't know how hard
it can be to teach a hardware guy software concepts :-) .
