attributes need to be registered before the item is retrieved from the server, 
deserialization happens afterwards. What should work is static initialization 
in the library they are defined in, an example can be found here: 
kdepimlibs/akonadi/kmime/attributeregistrar.cpp (you can probably ignore the 
static lib part). This will automatically register your attributes when the 
corresponding library is loaded.
