Companion to #96393, and stemming from points made in the discussions at https://discuss.python.org/t/supporting-or-not-invalid-identifiers-in-kwargs/17147/26 and #96397, this proposes extending how we define "attribute" to match the behaviour of implementations and some current user practice.
Needs SC discussion, I believe.
