I feel there is still something I'd like to do here, but I'm currently blocked on not having a plan to move forward that folks agree on. The options seem to be:

- Proceed but rename/rework this interface and ensure it's clearly scoped to storage/parsing/printing
- Make a new concrete attribute (`IntLikeElementsAttr` `IntLikeAttr`) that allows more permissive types (anything that has integer storage) but avoids overlap with other attributes that may expect specific semantics.
