Think of it this way. If I have myString.String, and use the strings in
it as an attribute in one module, and in another use module use
myString.String as an attribute with a totally different meaning, that
will not work if plugins are used.
Thinking of it this way don't make any sense. The whole point of an
attribute is to tell a library about how to understand your code.
If many library uses the same attribute, then it defeat the whole point
of having attribute. This is why the discussion about disallowing any
type as UDA exists in the first place.
