Known Subclasses:

An attribute definition for an item containing a unicode string.

In addition to AtomicAttribute's keywords, you can use ``strip`` (default false) to have leading and trailing whitespace be removed on parse. (Unparsing will not add it back).

You can also add ``expand`` (default False) to have UnicodeAttribute try and expand RD macros on the instance passed in. This of course only works if the attribute lives on a class that is a MacroPackage.
