Please send me a diff if you have already done it and I will add it to
my sources :-)

There is already an add attribute, edit attribute and delete attribute
menu in my tkined sources which modifies the set of selected
objects. The idea was born when I started to think about the long list
of ideas send by John P. Rouillard (I will comment on them later - I
am still thinking about John's ideas).

Let me know if there is strong need to have this feature available
soon as the tk4.0 version I am working on now will take some more
time before it gets out of the door.
