Allowing shortcodes inside attributes

Sorry, brackets are still not allowed within shortcodes, as you can see in the Shortcode API. However it’s possible to use enclosing shortcodes which will allow to use brackets.

TED talks shortcode not working

Create custom [sourcecode] shortcode, the right way?

You’re asking about X, but I’ll answer with Y. IMHO, there are too many exceptions to handle to grant another solution.
