Summary
In
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/11645#issuecomment-2701601350
it was resolved to replace `string` attr() type with
`raw-string`, see:
https://drafts.csswg.org/css-values-5/#attr-notation. Change
attr() syntax, so that `attr(data-foo string)` will now become
`attr(data-foo raw-string)`.

Risks
Interoperability and Compatibility
Feature was launched recently in M133 and not supported in other
browsers yet, so shouldn't be a high risk.
Do we have any sense of current usage? And do we have a plan to
communicate the change to developers?
Usage of `attr(data-x string)` seems pretty much inexistent because:
- This is Chrome-first and so far I’ve only seen a limited set of
demos (that do not even use string).
- When a type is omitted - i.e. when using `attr(data-x)` – it behaves
like `attr(data-x raw-string)`. The short for is what authors have
been using so far.
That sounds promising, but do we have any UseCounter data?
As for communication I have prepared a PR to update MDN:
https://github.com/mdn/content/pull/38580 which is awaiting review.
The blog post + demos on developer.chrome.com (See
https://developer.chrome.com/blog/advanced-attr) do not mention
`attr(data-x string)` as the post points to MDN for docs. I can add an
update banner to the post.
Thanks for that.

Anticipated spec changes
Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web
compat or interop issues. Please list open issues (e.g. links to
known github issues in the project for the feature specification)
whose resolution may introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g.,
changing to naming or structure of the API in a
non-backward-compatible way).
