Re:  Attributes and Axis
  <xsl:if test="following-sibling::attribute()">

attributes are not children of their parent or siblings of each other
(biology and Xpath don't always agree:-) the only axes on which
attribute nodes appear are self:: and attribute:: even self:: is a bit
problematic as the principla node type is eleemnt so an attribute foo
IS NOT SELECTED  self::foo or self::* (but it is by self::node() )

../@*

will find all the attributes of the parent of the current attribute.

../@*[name()!=name(current())]
will find all the other attributes
you can write that last one as
../@* except .
in Xpath 2.
