> Checks in interceptors for attribute values do not test all values but instead use Attribute.contains() which will lead to problems.  Some code iterates through the values checking for equality using caseIgnore matching on strings.  This also is not good because case exact attribute types can collide.  We must audit the code base to make sure we use normalizers to properly handle attribute value comparisons.
