So if you had:
<input type="text" id="user.name" />
how would you apply a style to that?
can't say:
#user.name {
}
because that would look for
<input type="text" id="user" class="name" />
yeah, "poor choice" sure is relative, but why make things more
difficult, when a simple dash or underscore would do the same thing
(and not cause issues with basic CSS or jQuery)
