I expect it’s rare, because there isn’t any way to use such an attribute.

"grep by-pin *.scm" in the gnetlist scheme directory shows me that:

gnet-gossip uses “label”. This may be a bug.

gnet-vams explicitly uses “port_object”, “port_type”, “port_mode", and “width”. It uses an additional list of pin attributes (connlist) but I don’t know what that might contain.
