Yes. We first should justify if it makes sense to cram attribute set into the repository object and pass it around in the first place. Many index-state related functions do not pass repository around because they work on index-state, so index-state is passed around instead. Perhaps the attribute subsystem should be the same way, in that their globals should belong to its own abstraction that is smaller scale than a repository object (it is permissible to have such an attribute-set object know about which repository instance it is related to, though).
