Odoo List view: set column to be always visible

I'm working with Odoo 14 and would like to know if there is an option in XML template to suppress optional="show"/"hide" setting inherited from parent template. For example I have following code in parent template:

<field name="code" optional="show" readonly="1"/>

On a child template I would like to do something like this:

<xpath expr="//field[@name='code']" position="attributes">
    <attribute name="optional">Always on</attribute>
</xpath>

to set the code field to be always on, without option to hide or show the column. Is there any option to do so?

You can inherit that field's attribute and remove it.

<xpath expr="//field[@name='code']" position="attributes">
    <attribute name="optional"></attribute>
</xpath>

Solution is in fact easy, just to replace the inherited element with newly defined - without optional attribute. This rewrites all attribute settings.

<!-- In child template: -->
<xpath expr="//field[@name='code']" position="replace">
    <field name="code"/>
</xpath>
