You're right. That would be nice for generic code for instance to 
mark that it's done processing an attribute.

Remove all would probably be more in sync with getAttributes that 
returns all attributes, but removing only the first would allow 
greater flexibility. It's easy to remove all if you have a way to 
remove one, but the other way around isn't as easy :)
