Anyway, it might not be a bad idea to allow the option to use single quotes 
around an HTML attribute, though not sure of the best way to achieve that. 
Maybe use a double underscore to identify such attributes:

INPUT(..., **{'__data-options': XML('{"mode":"calbox"}')})

or add a "json" argument to specify attributes to be treated as JSON:

INPUT(..., json={'data-options': '{"mode":"calbox"}'})

In the above case, it would know to use single quotes and to wrap the 
string in XML(). Perhaps it could also be smart enough to take a dict or 
list and automatically convert to a JSON string.
