I dont mind the var(--foo) but I wish I could do var(attr(foo)) to use a var defined in the attribute foo.

`attr()` is being updated to basically do that, the modern spec lets you specify a datatype and access any attribute (with some exceptions, you can't get URL types for security reasons), then use it generally.
E.g: aspect-ratio: attr(width px) / attr(height px);

Interestingly, the bug for this feature is already 17 years old (
