Support for Attributes of Any Type in XML Objects
Problem
Would it be possible to implement the storage of attributes of any type similar to what the Yjs package does? For example, you can see Yjs's implementation here:
https://github.com/yjs/yjs/blob/8dc1296a0bd15e70c573160593c2617e0d772f01/src/types/YText.js#L1235-L1268
Currently, more complex attributes from the Yjs package are arriving in the pycrdt package as strings, making it impossible to retrieve them properly. Check the details in the following references:
https://github.com/jupyter-server/pycrdt/blob/2518513b7c17073fcde70f194435358aa9cd2b8a/python/pycrdt/_pycrdt.pyi#L300-L307
https://github.com/jupyter-server/pycrdt/blob/2518513b7c17073fcde70f194435358aa9cd2b8a/src/xml.rs#L76-L94
Additional context
Here is an example of an attribute that I find difficult to retrieve properly due to the various possibilities of values and data organization:
tokens = "[{text: welcome, start: 55, end: 56.4567498}, {start: 56.4567498, text: feature:, end: 60.11}, {start: 60.11, end: 65.0001, text: 12.4564}]"```
I would have to look into it, but maybe @ColonelThirtyTwo has ideas?
Fixed in #276.
