In parallel with that suggestion, if one already has a schema added for that purpose, it's a relative simple and probably forward-looking change to add a wrapper element to carry the RequestedAttribute elements instead of having them appear at the top level in the Extensions element.

That makes it possible for others to define their own semantics that might reuse the RequestedAttribute syntax without colliding. It's just good form to do that, somewhat analagous to a SOAP header block.
