Yes, it it, indeed.

And I would agreed as well; if there's many of them, the solution I am
proposing is not the correct one. But let#s shave this discussion later ....

      <member name="topicId" />
   </attributeBinding>

which causes the right substitution to take place.

Feel free to throw this at us at any time, even if in parallel.
