Seems to me that you can just declare the attribute "default" to be of
type ID. That requires its value to be unique. Then create a
restriction so that it can only accept the value "true". Finally, make
the attribute's presence optional. Now you are allowed to use it, but
it must have the value "true" and that value may only appear once.
This method ought to be easier and more interoperable than using "key".
Of course, this won't work if you want to also include many attributes
default='false'.
