I've just checked the implementation, and my example isn't correct. It
should read (note the changed attribute name):

    <al-td colspanexpr="n.span()">

In this case, the attribute is evaluated, and the result substitued, eg:

    <td colspan="3">

There is a second notation for boolean attributes:

    <al-input name="abc.value" disabledbool="abc.isdisabled()" />

which will evaluate the expression and emit the attribute if result
is true:

    <input name="abc.value" disabled />
