I remember this discussion. This is not my kind of XML file, the
attribute value is too much written for context. It is useful if it is
meant to be an input file for Context, but it is not useful if the XML
file is meant to be formatter independent. And I think the code you
have to write to use the attribute is too difficult as a user option.
I was thinking more about the simple example <para type="rule"> and a
simple user command like
\defineattributeaction[para][type]
{\doifsamestring{\XMLpar{para}{type}{}}{bold}{\bfa}}
