@ethanrd The CF documentation regarding constants of various types references 
the NUG, which gives some examples of CDL syntax, but which is by no means a 
rigorous description of how to represent each data type in an attribute. The 
**ncgen** man page has a discussion of this, but that sure seems like a 
multiply-removed place for a basic definition to reside. Perhaps we need to 
have the NUG or CF go into greater detail about this. (I think the NUG is 
probably the more appropriate place.)
