Like youtube or google play or those music sites, "content not available in your country". Elements to attributes - in general it's lossy, but yes, that's a reasonable case for templates that return attributes. Functions that return attributes might be easier to work with, though, or templates that return strings, plus a helper function that creates an attribute only if a string is not empty. Careful use of as= can help reduce problems.
