I modified my AttributeAdder plug-in based on our earlier discussions on this list. It now makes a copy of the selected layer and creates copies of the features it contains. It then adds the attribute values to the features in this new layer.
This plug-in will prove useful if you have a standard set of attributes you need to add to a lot of layers. It would also be useful if you have a standard set of attributes you need to add to the same layer in a lot of different tasks. For example, I'll be adding the same group of 4 or 5 "metadata" attributes to all my OSM data layers. I'll try to get this plug-in bundled up for release by the end of this week. Here is a question: I defined some public methods as part of the AttributeAdder API that allow you to automatically add attributes to a Layer, and to add default values to Features. Is there a good way to allow other tools access to this API, other than moving these methods to a utility class in the core, or does this bump us back into the dependency problem again?
