I would like to accomplish the following in xml processing.

<node macro="various macro calls"> and then define the attribute value as a TeX 
macro.
For example, to use this in font switching: <node 
macro="\switchtobodyfont[helvetica]">

Doing this in the following manner does not work:

\startxmlsetups namespace
  \def\macro{\xmlattdef{#1}{macro}{\empty}} 
\stopxmlsetups

The contents evaluates not to a working macro.
Something with catcodes, I presume, but I do not how to do it properly.
Preferably I would like to see \meaning\macro evaluate to: 
\switchtobodyfont[helvetica].

Can someone enlighten me?
