It's much harder to spot them when they are dynamically generated by
e.g. a cloneNode operation. You can't submit your browser's DOM tree to
the validator...
Any markup that causes a browser to automatically clone a node will be
non-conformant and will be flagged as erroneous by a validator. Of
course it won't say duplicate ID, but it will give errors about badly
nested elements.
