Add comment advising against trying to create new attribute types This clarification was requested by a teammate who was looking into reasons not to define a new type, Dict<String, Union<String, Dict<String, String>>>. I wanted to put a little extra pressure against these kinds of ad hoc extensions. Ideally, there would be no new ad hoc attribute types unless they could be very clearly described and served a pressing need. If we find ourselves greenlighting many more types, we should consider replacing the whole attribute mechanism with something more generic, but I don't see that happening anytime soon.
