HELP, I need somebody. Attribute Query and Custom Attributes

[synapse187]

For some reason no matter what way I check the keyable state of a custom attribute it always returns false, or non keyable.

Create a poly sphere, then simply add a custom attribute named asdf with keyable selected and then try this.

MEL VERSION:
addAttr -query -keyable "pSphere1.asdf"

or

attributeQuery -keyable -node "pSphere1" "asdf"

Both results are False...

WHY IS A KEYABLE ATTRIBUTE RETURNING FALSE!?

Querying the keyable state through the attributeQuery command doesn't work for me either.

The getAttr gets the correct results though:

getAttr -query -keyable "pSphere1.asdf";
