I assume this is about the selected="selected" output ?

Ron : what is it that leads you to think it is being abused ? It is a
good feature that makes a lot of sense. It only acts that way for
attributes that are defined as boolean and has no nasty side-effects.

What would be the reason for removing a feature that helps templates
and syntax stay clean and that behaves in a predictable way?
