What about custom attributes? Is Swixml going to have a way to add custom attributes in a similar way as custom tags?

Steve,
This is not entirely true. You can have custom LayoutManagers but need
to register them in the TabLibrary. Moreover, you would have to write a
Converter.
Anyway, it has been widely recognized that the way layouts are handled
in Swixml is far from optimal and the 1st release of Swixml 2 will have
layouts promoted from an attribute to a tag.
Please also look at Swixml web site, for some newly added sample.
