Richard,

  XML:  a <Filter> tag
  Perl API: addFilter
  webservice query API: described by type=attributes
  martview webpage: displayed in the attributes section

What you are suggesting is for it to be treated solely EITHER as an
Attribute OR as a Filter OR as a third, independent, AttributeFilter
entity throughout all four sections mentioned above, rather than treated
as different things in different parts of the system.

Yes. Maybe even not across all four sections. For my specific case,
the inconsistency is with 'XML' and 'webservice query API' (more
precisely - with a single query, which retrieves the list of filters
for dataset). However, XML is generated (at least in part) to be later
used with 'webservice query API' - thus the feeling of inconsistency.

Arek, what do you think?

Arek, this isn't an urgent problem, but I'd be glad to know for the
future what is the trend here.

Thanks for help,
Bogdan
