----------------------------------------

+1

Visually verified code and did a contrib-check build. In a standealone instance ran a series of cascading UpdateAttribute processors encoding/decoding various attributes. Everything worked as expected. Great contribution [~josephxsxn]! I will squash and merge it in.
