So what does it mean [url= [url removed] #source]here[/url] when it says that non-XLIFF attributes are allowed in and elements?

Well, that may be the historical perspective, but in the specification one of its listed attributes is "purpose", and one of the listed values of "purpose" is "information", which is described as "Indicates that the context is informational in nature, specifying for example, how a term should be translated. Thus, should be displayed to anyone editing the XLIFF document."

That said, I did not have high expectations -- most major CAT tools do not show notes for translators in the main part of the UI.
