I would highly suggest you don't think this way. I simplified the attribute
model to just key/value pairs because I thought we could do it better than
MS. However I found out that their way was best and reverted to their
attributes. In Info they are currently represented as;
<tag name="x">
<param name="A" value="aa"/>
<param name="B" value="bb"/>
</tag>
Thats how they represent attributes and it makes it easier to work with.
Especially when grouping, inheriting and dealing with multiplicity.
