When editing a product kit there is a list of all included products which include quantity, ordering and discount. This should also include the product attribute options.

example: we sell online content for schools. An ebook can be purchases individually, per classroom or per school. These are all attribute options of the ebook product. We want to create product kits which would include an ebook with a classroom license, but as product kits work now you can't set the attribute option on the edit page - instead the customer picks which attribute option they want which, in this case, won't work.

Our workaround is to create copies of existing products with only one attribute option, but this is obviously entirely inefficient and messy...

Is this a reasonable request or perhaps is there a method to achieve this that I don't know?

Thanks for your insights and thanks ubercart for making an awesome module!

Thanks for the idea... I think I saw similar discussion going on in the forums. The problem is that attributes/options are only applicable to products, whereas product kits are just groups of products. There is no way to add attributes/options to such a group in the code layer. I'm marking it postponed so we can hopefully revisit this idea in the future.
