The "define" element does not create a local property, all it does
is generate a value for an attribute. This value can be used for any
purpose that the macro author may think of. The value is constructed
so that a different value will be made each time the attribute is created.
This means that it may be used as a property name to make a unique
property name each time the macro is run.

I was thinking of doing
<attribute name="x" genvalue="yes"/>

or
<genvalue name="x"/>


but
<define> is also good (with a good manual entry).
