For example, what AsciiDoc emits might look something like:
<?dbfo border-left-color="black"?>
In the XSL stylesheet, you'll then need something like:
<xsl:variable name="border-left-color">
<xsl:call-template name="pi.dbfo_border-left-color"/>
</xsl:variable>
<xsl:if test="$border-left-color != ''">
<xsl:attribute name="border-left-color">
<xsl:value-of select="$border-left-color"/>
</xsl:attribute>
</xsl:if>
It ain't pretty, but it gets the job done.
