Good idea.  Actually, the big problem here is allowing attributes to have 
different values depending on context.

This is a non-trivial problem (I've recently been working on datastructures & 
algorithms that might allow it to work).

The biggest problems are:

 - the current assumption that each text object has only one possible value

 - the lack of a defined "project" concept that would make it easier to "look 
up" what the current value to display would be.

However, I think these problems are surmountable -- but I don't have anything 
worth showing off yet.
