HTML5 input types and the asp.net MVC Framework

Question

Im looking to make the editor templates in my MVC application use HTML5 input types. The framework seems to get about 80% of the way there but there are a couple of things I can't seem to make happen (step values on numerics, placeholders, URL inputs, etc).

I'm sure that quite a bit of this is just me not knowing where to look, but

Is there a definitive list of what attributes I can use on View Models to provide the metadata used to generate the html?
Does anyone know of a project / nuget package that helps with this? I'm not opposed to writing something, but would rather use something that's already been tried and tested. Dean Hume's ASP.net MVC HTML5 Helpers Toolkit is close, but I'd like to put as much information in the attributes as possible and let the runtime do the work via Html.EditorFor (just a personal preference).

Thanks,

Joe
