I agree with Jeanne; in general, you'd want to set this in common across all pages, not on a case-by-case basis. I prefer not adding instance-level attributes until it's absolutely required.

That's a good analysis, and what we usually go through when we decide on an attribute or a skin property. I personally don't think we'd need it at the specific level, which I've been calling 'per instance'.
