Is there any value in supporting a regular expression or (alternatively)
supporting Expression Language for the Attribute List property? For the former,
I'm thinking of the use case where there might be an arbitrary number of
attributes available, often with the same prefix. For the latter (I doubt we'd
want to support both), I'm thinking of the case (if it exists) where the CSV
column names might themselves be in an attribute, where their values might be
in the corresponding attribute(s). That second one seems pretty much an edge
case, I just wanted to bring these up for discussion. If neither seems
particularly useful, then I'm good with the comma-separated list of attributes
:)
