Given that `attr()` has been there since at least 2005 and keeps being deferred because of no implementation signal, shouldn’t it be reconsidered more deeply? The existing situation seems much like the lack of implementers’ interest. Perhaps the `attr()` function should forever stay in the string-only form as defined in CSS2.x, and for deriving typed values from attributes something new should be introduced instead, to avoid confusion and make experimenting/implementation easier?
