Yes, but you don't know if there is a user w= ritten backend.

For example, I add user defined attribute= s to my symbols in gschem, and I have scripts that uses it.

Gschem doesn't know what to do with my attributes, but my scripts do= es.

So I don't think this approach makes no sen= se.

This doesn't make sense, because a layertype makes only sense if= there's
code handling it.

Before John chimes in: the same is true for geschem; some attribute
makes only sense if the backend knows what to do with it. Else it's jus= t
decoration.
