I proposed 'unexpected attribute' because it is consistent with the  
other errors, such as 'expected identifier', 'unknown type name' etc.
It also works no matter if you add "before 'class'" after it or not. ;-)

But I actually like sentences, like you do, and agree that a more  
explanatory sentence would be better.  But maybe all error messages
should be changed in sync then ?
