`unit` | provides a unit for a rate feature, one of a finite list that may be specified in a feature declaration.
| Datatype: CDATA
| Values: A string, e.g. meter.
| Default: #IMPLIED
`per` | provides an interval for a rate feature, one of a finite list that may be specified in a feature declaration.
| Datatype: CDATA
| Values: A string, e.g. second.
| Default: #REQUIRED
`rel` | indicates the relation of the given value or range to the actual value or range.
| Datatype: (eq|ne|gt|ge|lt|le)

Legal values:

`eq` | indicates that the actual value or range is that given.
`ne` | indicates that the actual value or range is not the value or range given by the element.
`lt` | indicates that the actual value or range is less than the given value or range.
`le` | indicates that the actual value or range is less than or equal to the given value or range.
`gt` | indicates that the actual value or range is greater than the given value or range.
`ge` | indicates that the actual value or range is greater than or equal to the given value or range.

| Default: eq
`type` | indicates whether value is to be understood as real or integer.
| Datatype: (int|real)

Legal values:

`int` | specifies that value is an integer; if noninteger is given as value of `value` , then only integer part is used.
`real` | specifies that value is that of a real number.
