Feature Request: add attributes

@scottdeluzio
Hi Scott,
I have long wanted to be able to insert a complete shortcode to the editor, so I was glad to see your plugin.
However, it stops short of being totally useful.
I have written a proof of concept for a way to get the attributes of a shortcode, and I wondered if you could test it out and make it robust to add to your plugin.I imported your plugin to GitHub, but it stopped short of full import, and left me with version 1.0.3 or something like that. I created a branch for my concept here: https://github.com/joyously/shortcode-lister/tree/feature-standalone
(I was originally trying to do this for inclusion in ClassicPress and had the wrong idea, so the name was changed from lister to list.)I think it needs testing on different PHP versions, as I’m not sure that the output remains the same. It needs the booleans filtered to 0 or 1; you can see this in either the [embed] or [video]. I intended that there be JS for the editor to better handle the editing of the shortcode, but didn’t get to that part.
The reason I did this the way I did is it made sense to deal with a keyed array in PHP rather than JS, and thevar_export
function made it so easy regarding types and quotes, etc.I hope you see the value of this and can incorporate it into your plugin.
Joy
