The behaviour in Asciidoc Python is really an implementation detail of
the config files that has leaked into documents and been made
official.  I think Asciidoctor has the right approach, give the
document writer the option to get noisy messages if an attribute is
missing rather than silent lossage.

The document writer should be explicit that a missing attribute means
leave out content using conditional attribute references.

The Asciidoc User guide 15.4.1 implies that you can expect output if
you only set a custom caption, but that isn't written specifically
anywhere and there is no explicit code to make it work, so its
probably as you say a side effect of implementation and so undefined.

At least they should allow including files on github that you can link to.
