For higher currents it is useful to add attribute on net in schematic to tell which trace width is needed. It might actually be better to use maximum current since width also depend on copper thickness and I guess attribute for impedance for high frequencies could be useful.

I read specification and as I understand file format allow attributes any attribute needed on nets so it could be added later on.
