I am well aware that the SMD, Virtual and through hole can be set there,
but what is the INSERT attribute... It does not show up in the properties
dialog.

Check file->Fabrication Outputs->Footprint pos file.

I cannot find the INSERT attribute that is mentioned there anywhere, but
still there is an option that does different things that mentions them.
