`value="$x{y}"` is shorthand for `value="x" when="y"`, so I would say
the doc tool needs to know how to parse both.
OTOH `$immediately{null}` is exactly the same as `null`; i.e., the
default value for `when` is immediately.
Oh and, `${y}` is shorthand for `$always{y}`, because that is the most
common reason for a when other than immediately.
The simple work-around for now would appear to be to remove the
(useles) constraint from the source.

<basegrid> has a couple attributes:
<attribute name="bgcolor0" type="color"
value="$immediately{null}"/>
<attribute name="bgcolor1" type="color"
value="$immediately{null}"/>
$immediately{null} means nothing to the doctools, and it shows as
just that.
I noticed basetabs.lzx has:
<attribute name="inset_top" value="8" type="number"
when="immediately" />
So maybe when="immediately" is meant?
This code has been in basegrid.lzx since r726 when it was imported
from perforce.
Thanks,
