Hi, 

No, you can't add random attributes like this in any XMPP protocol element and 
expect it to work. 

For storing feed meta data on nodes, there are two options: 

1. Having a special item to hold it. See section 5 of XEP-0277.

2. Add meta data on the pubsub node's configuration. Some fields already exist 
to cover information from the feed level meta data. If there's no direct match, 
you can use Clark Notation to namespace custom fields (see XEP-0068). 

I also want to call out a special mention of a deferred XEP to store XML in a 
form field, which references the exact use case: XEP-0315.
