I use invalid custom attributes a lot for non-public facing sites (and occasionally public facing ones because I love them so much).

<a blowUpWhat="stuff">Blow stuff up!</a>

I also use rel a lot if I want to validate.

I've used store a lot and love it, but haven't used it for this kind of thing. I think I'll give it a whirl.

i dont use classes for determining what i should do, i use to style and to mark groups so i can use a class selector to get them.
I think you should use the storage.
But thats my own opinion of course, wait for other people opinion.

Let's say I want to check an element's value to determine the action
that should take place.
I could do that with if(el.hasClass('myClass') ...
Or I could store a state with el.store and for picking the right
action if(el.retrieve('property') == 'whatever') ...

I used the work with classes in the past, but now tend to use element
storage (looks more like a true scripting approach), and I think it's
faster (but that is based on nothing really).

What do you use?
