Allowing us as PHP users to add whatever kind of metadata and tooling to interpret it we find useful is exactly what user-defined attributes are for. So any attributes added in the engine which declare some behavioural change should be limited to those able to provide a tangible benefit which can't be achieved in userland. -Dave
