Best way to find a repeating section attribute via the API

I might be being daft, but I can't seem to find a  nice way to access attributes within a specific repeating section via the API. Do I just have to pull down all the attributes for the character and filter them by hand with a predicate to filterObjs? Or is there a way to ask for the attributes from a specific repeating section? Cheers,

I haven't found a way to ask for attributes in a specific repeating section.  Generally I have used filterObjs to find the repeating row ID, then from there use various other functions.  getAttrByName() was working well until recently, now it seems to be a bit wonky in the way it works... making me reevaluate its use in a couple of scripts.
