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

You can add attributes from a non-XLIFF namespace if you declare the corresponding XML Schema in the header of the XLIFF file.

Many tools use custom XML Schemas in their XLIFF files, SDLXLIFF files are just an example, and that does not make the files invalid.

Your example declares a "version" attribute without namespace prefix. It should have been something like my:version="3" with "my" namespace properly declared.

Try to validate the file and you will surely receive and invalid XML error.
