Last night I had an idea that might just be good enough (and simple 
enough) not to consider:

I noticed the EFX extensions defined AL_AIR_ABSORPTION_FACTOR

How about combining the current model and the air absorption factor to 
influence distance attenuation by multiplying to this factor before 
doing the attenuation?

Now you have linear, exponential and inverse distance models and a way 
to control it's roll-off distance.
Would that be sufficient?
