I see. No hope here.
But I found some sort of solution which I communicate here. It is bit of a kludge but does more or less what I had in mind. The following macros do the work in my xml=>xtable module:
<table frameon="t,b"> also <thead> <tr> <td> and so on.
\def\setframeparts#1#2#3{%
\doifinset{t}{#1}{#3[topframe=#2]}%
\doifinset{b}{#1}{#3[bottomframe=#2]}%
\doifinset{l}{#1}{#3[leftframe=#2]}%
\doifinset{r}{#1}{#3[rightframe=#2]}%
}
..#2 being \setupxtable or \setupframed, just as needed
\doifnot{\xmlatt{#1}{frameon}}{\empty}%
{#2[frame=off]\setframeparts{\xmlatt{#1}{frameon}}{on}{#2}}%
\doifnot{\xmlatt{#1}{frameoff}}{\empty}%
{#2[frame=on]\setframeparts{\xmlatt{#1}{frameoff}}{off}{#2}}%
..

Do I conclude correctly that the dimension of the space is fixed to what \blank[] does?
I experimented with various values, but did not get much out of it.
