No solution, but maybe a realted question:
These attributes are non-standard and have been added by J. Clark for the
RTF backend - they don't show up in the FOT file produced, for instance. The
latter would be extremely helpful to support these features (e.g. in the
fot2pdf backend, which is based on the fot output).

Maybe, a "cleaner" implementation of these user-defined attributes would
help, but as I have asked the developers on this list earlier, there seems
noone willing to implement it.

May it be the two problems are related?

Hope someone programming OpenJade answers...
