I am trying to make use of firebase-element in my app.

It works great in it's simple form like this:

<firebase-element location="https://myapp.firebaseio.com/services"; 
data="{{services}}""></firebase-element>


There are a couple of issues with this though:

   1. I need to be able to easily configure the base location (
   https://myapp.firebaseio.com/) for development/production environments. 
   I tried to make this a global variable 
   <http://www.polymer-project.org/docs/polymer/polymer.html#global>, but 
   didn't get that right, so I added a script to my main page, to add a simple 
   config variable to the window. I still can't figure out how to pass that 
   value into the location attribute of the firebase-element (e.g. 
   location="{{window.config.firebaseBase}}/services", 
   location=window.config.firebaseBase+"/services").
   2. I would like to be able to add functions to firebase-element for 
   different locations (e.g. /services in above example).
   
So I am trying to extend firebase-element and configure the location 
variable in the process:

<link rel="import" href="../bower_components/polymer/polymer.html">
<link rel="import" 
href="../bower_components/firebase-element/firebase-element.html">
<polymer-element name="ca-services-collection"
                 extends="firebase-element">
  <script>
    Polymer('ca-services-collection', {
      ready: function(){
        this.attributes.location = window.config.firebaseBase+"/services";
        console.log("Ready Firebase attributes:", this.attributes);
        this.super();
      }
    });
  </script>
</polymer-element>

This works:

<ca-services-collection location="https://myapp.firebaseio.com/services"; 
data="{{services}}"></ca-services-collection>

This doesn't: 

<ca-services-collection data="{{services}}"></ca-services-collection>

What am I doing wrong please?
