However, I'm not sure whether you wanted to include meta-attributes that can be set on a collective for the sole purpose of being inherited by a primitive (sort of the opposite scenario compared to the one above).

• On the one hand: it's cleaner and clearer not to include them, and to include only those meta-attributes that have a direct effect on the collective. We can simply ensure it's documented (maybe it already is) that primitives inherit all of their parents' meta-attributes. That implies that any primitive meta-attribute can be set on a collective for the purpose of inheritance.
• On the other hand: excluding them offloads more work to external tools. For example, if pcs is validating meta-attributes for a bundle, then it needs to check the list of bundle meta-attributes, the list of primitive meta-attributes, and maybe the list of clone meta-attributes. That's not a deal-breaker, but it requires that extra knowledge of Pacemaker behavior be built into external tools.
