This is separate from discussion about cc:attributionName/URL, which
are work properties. cc:Attribution is a cc:Requirement which is in
the range of cc:requires which has a domain of cc:License.
cc:Attribution should be thought of as "requires some attribution,
unspecified exactly how, what or when".

The 2009(!) bug you cite is due to Inkscape apparently identifying
license by its coarse requirements/prohibitions/permissions rather
than by a canonical identifier for an individual license, as it
should.
