Have you tried "*[id='myForm:myName']"? That ought to work, though it wouldn't surprise me if it did not.
A colon is a valid character in ID attributes, so it should be supported. Part of me thinks that the attribute selector approach (if it works) would be sufficient -- but another part of me thinks we should follow jQuery's lead here and just special-case the double- escaped colon in all contexts. (Out of curiosity, what happens when you try to target #myForm:myText with a CSS selector? The use of the colon to denote pseudoclass would seem to be a problem in CSS as well.)
