Dear Fidel,

Good question. As you already say, all attributes are single trace or 
multi (neighbour) trace operations. To use (a subset of) all traces for 
calculating coefficients would be a kind of pre-processing step. One 
option is to make this coefficient calculation available from your 
attribute user interface and save the result as parameters to give to 
the attribute algorithm.

It's a bit similar to what we do in our FingerPrint attribute. The 
FingerPrint attribute needs a single vector of (other) attribute values 
as input. The calculation of this vector is done from the user 
interface. See:
$WORK/include/uiAttributes/uifingerprintattrib.h , 
$WORK/src/uiAttributes/uifingerprintattrib.cc
$WORK/include/Attributes/fingerprintattrib.h , 
$WORK/src/Attributes/fingerprintattrib.cc
