IMO they should be in the wicket namespace e.g. wicket:color in order
to clearly separate wicket tags from the rest and to remain (X)HTML
compliant. And I think it would be a little bit more efficient as
well, as we do not have to test all attributes.
A requisite would be that the tag does have a wicket:id as well or the
tag being in the wicket namespace like <wicket:panel
wicket:width="10">.
We do have something similiar with <wicket:param> already but this
approach doesn't work well for several reasons. May be your suggestion
is a better approach and may be we can remove <wicket:param> all
together.
Note: wicket:id would be reserved and we won't try to call setId().
