I do agree with Abel that you should try to put the "hints" attributes
in a separate namespace, it really helps the page designer if the code
is not highlited with errors everywhere, and most editors are ok with
extra sttributes as long as they are not in the xhtml namespace.

Not only that, but if the utility really can be used to create stylesheets with arbitrary XML results, the target format might well have attributes named the same as the "hints" attributes. The whole idea of namespaces, and the reason they're useful despite all their complications, is that they serve to resolve clashes like this.
