  Okay. It seems as though these are tied to a specific information model implementation (one using SQL schemas) and not applicable to a generic implementation.

  Perhaps it is wrong to use the word "attribute" for these associated objects (when you refering to foreign keys your own SQL table). Most readers would relate this wording to an XML attribute in the messaging schema, not a SQL schema attribute in your implementation.
