Well, maybe nobody cares or are just too busy (maybe it's weekend)...
anyway I made a patch that creates the attisinherited attribute and I
think I got it working (that is, inherited attributes have it set and
for non-inherited it is false). I haven't yet written checks for
disallowing the unwanted operations, though.

I will test it some more and post a patch later.
