For symbol attributes there is a list of attributes to chose from then selecting an attribute, although manual entering is also possible. It would be good with list of attribute values also. First step would be possibility to store information in symbol. It is useful for values for in particular: resistors, capacitors and inductors but also for comparators, operational amplifiers and others.

Some attribute values depend on downstream tools like footprint and maybe device so they be harder to get into gschem, ideally maybe they should be generated by downstream tool?
