You can use EntityAttributes anywhere/anyway you want. The use of them in the filter rules is as arbitrary and open-ended as using them in the resolver would be. The use of well-defined property names that corrrespond to defined Java properties in the ProfileConfiguration and RelyingPartyConfiguration interfaces and classes, and the special wiring supplied, are the only part that is "special" in any particular sense, and even that's not hardwired in any particular way or with those names, they're just pre-defined to make it a standardized approach.
