Well, right. This happens when attrs is the first argument and you
have only one attribute. Usually, we allow for attrs=color.rgb.red
instead enforcing the usage of attrs=[color.rgb.red], e.g. creating a
list out of a single attribute automatically. May be, this is more
confusing than it helps.

I guess there are some type checks for the argument list being
performed before the merging of the attributes took place. Those
errors are likely to be in the code all around ... ;-(
