Hi, If the issue is that the attribute in question indeed has the value "unset" as its real value, then what I'd suggest is to make a custom transformer that takes as an input an attribute name, and then tests if this attribute has the value "unset" via a tester transformer, and then sets said attribute to "" (nothing).
Mark I -- can I challenge you to create such a custom xformer (I'm curious if it can be done) and then post it here, showing it used to do this to a couple of different attributes. Thanks.
