They don't need to have a value, but the template item does need to have the custom item attribute(s). The mere existence of an attribute on a form will not bring the attribute over.

Thank you -- that is what I was missing.
My approach has been to create forms with custom attributes. Then in the template item, I just give the name of the form used. I assumed the attributes were pulled into the new type. This worked until I tried copying items between databases. Maybe it has had other consequences that I'm not aware of.
