Something else to consider:
CSS provides a Selector based on ID [1].
The text at [1] acknowledges that ID linking is unreliable
(DTD might not be processed or might not exist), and presents
a work around: using attribute selectors.
Looks to me that any solution to the 'ID problem' will have to work
with CSS, and presumably impact the CSS specification as well, yes?
Cheers,
L.
