I would agree with Heather. Put it in 'use'. My worry about having a dedicated attribute is that the requirements may vary pretty widely from simple reference to wordy attribution (as per the Barthel example).
This also raises an issue about whether the Foundation should seek a similar arrangement with IHTSDO re use of SNOMED CT terms.
