     Why not add the Attribute() item as DJ suggested, but put it at the
     top somewhere, inside a comment? Versions of PCB that don't
     understand it would simply ignore it.
     Move it out of "commented out" status when that major file format
     change that was talked about previously takes place.
     Same could hold true for any other optional/non-critical changes to
     the file format.
