Commit summary for MediaWiki.r111647: (Bug 31417) Content-holding div needs an ID. Since the introduction of the class mw-content-ltr/rtl, it has been used to get the page text which is very bad because there are two class names and it is not always on the same place (if at all). This ID will always hold the bodytext (excluding categories, ArticleFeedback, ...). George Orwell III's comment: A lot of people on en.wikisource were wondering how to use the ms-content-ltr container to replace an interim container scheme used for dynamic layouts of transcluded content once it went through the ProofReading process. This additional ID generated skin-wide would greatly help cut down on the amount of local .js currently needed (not to mention help stop abusing #contentSub where the interim container is being dynamically moved to). Any chance this revision slated for 1.20wmf with the new ID attribute generation could be hurried along? Patching the current wikisource deployed version sooner rather than later sure could go a long way in undoing our dynamic layout mess moving forward.
