This looks good to me, although I would suggest using a '.' as the separator, 
since I think it makes sense to keep '-' available as a character usable in 
"normal" attribute names.  Also because being able to have a toplevel 
attribute:

  spice-sdb.fix-my-netlist-please=yes

is a required feature. :-P
