I agree. Since XACML's attribute type is extensible, it might be good
to limit this to XACML attribute value/type syntax.

Best,

I guess we are encountering an issue if these parameters will adhere to
XACML's value type system or not.

Not really, if we choose that the parameters adhere to XACML's value type
system. Then this would be a way to do it.
