According to 'XML in a nutshell', you could use the NOTATION type in
your ATTLIST, e.g.
<!NOTATION javacdebug SYSTEM "${javac.debug}">
<!NOTATION yes SYSTEM "yes">
<!NOTATION no SYSTEM "no">
<!ATTLIST javac type NOTATION (yes | no | javacdebug) #REQUIRED>
although, it also says "...in practice no common software actually supports
this scheme..."
So I guess I will suffer. I will check out what Intellij offers.
