  <xsl:attribute name="attname">
	<xsl:value-of select="somenodevalue"/>
  </xsl:attribute>


In almost all cases that could be wrriten using an attribute value
template as attname="{somenodevalue}" You only need to use xsl:attribute
if the attribute name is being constructed (or in some special cases of
keeping control over namespaces).

however

  Is there any reason why "select" attribute can't be added to xsl:attribute element?

I have often made the mistake of trying to use select on xsl:attribute
as well. I agree this would be useful.
