This is the syntax I prefered some time ago too, actually:

  Style (Id $[w.id]) ...

But now I think it is relatively bad compared to simply "WindowStyle ...",
because it allows to pass incorrect parameters (unexisting window ids)
and because I think it is ugly and redundant for commands and functions
that by definition should work on the window context to receive window id
as a parameter.

Think about "WindowStyle Sticky" as equivalent of "Stick", both should
work on the window context, it is just intuitive.

Mikhael.
