There are a couple of undocumented selectors for WESetAttributes()
and WESetOneAttribute() that allow you to remove all character-
or paragraph-level custom attributes defined in a given range:

    const WESelector    weTagRemoveAllCharacterCustomAttributes = ' -c ';
    const WESelector    weTagRemoveAllParagraphCustomAttributes = ' -p ';

There is currently no way to selectively remove a particular
custom attribute without affecting the others, nor to revert
the effect of a WERegisterCustomAttribute() call.

Please let me know if you would like this functionality to be
added to a future version of WASTE.

Best regards,

They want to turn it into a one-way flow that they have entirely
monetized. I look at the collective human mind as a kind of
ecosystem. They want to clear cut it. They want to go into the
rainforest of human thought and mow the thing down.
