Many of the other attributes in RFC 5580 indeed have complex
encodings, but using Operator-Name doesn't necessarily require
anything new from the RADIUS server... The "Namespace ID" values 
are intentionally printable ASCII digits, so you could treat
the whole attribute as one string, and put something like
'if Operator-Name == "1example.com" then...' in your RADIUS
configuration.
