It's a property of Attribute Information Items [1], which tells you
what, if anything, is known about the XML 1.0/XML 1.1 type of the
attribute, that is, CDATA, NMTOKEN, ID, IDREF, etc. Would you like
the following pipeline to work?
<p:pipeline>
<p:identity/>
<p:xslt>
<p:input port="stylesheet">
<p:inline>
<xsl:stylesheet>
. . .
<xsl:template match="ref">
<a href="#{@secid}>
<xsl:value-of select="id(@secid)/title"/>
</a>
</xsl:template>
. . .
</p:xslt>
</p:pipeline>
on input such as
<!DOCTYPE doc [
. . .
<!ATTLIST sec myid ID #REQUIRED>
. . .
]>
<doc>
. . .
<ref secid="s3"/>
. . .
<sec myid="s3">
<title>Future work</title>
. . .
</doc>
If the type of attributes isn't preserved, that pipeline won't work as
you (I think) and I (I know) would like and expect.
