Comment (by spascoe):

 I'm going to try to rephrase Bryan's point because I agree with it.

 The Data Model needs to differentiate between the encoding of attributes
 and attributes of model constructs.  The encoding states how a field
 construct's attributes can be encoded and decoded into global and/or
 variable attributes.  These rules would include how variable attributes
 override global attributes.

 Then the rest of the data model can ignore the distinction between global
 and variable attributes.  Everything can be expressed in attributes of
 constructs.

 That would seem to clarify the situation.  It would also help disentangle
 the CF model from the format, which is what we are trying to do.
