nack.  There is no way for a footprint attribute to be generic.  

These symbols shall exactly not be examples, and exactly not just work.

They shall be symbols that can be use as they are for any workflow, by
adding the required attributes after instantiation, or by editing a copy
in a project lib, i.e., the first easy steps in learning symbol editing.
