If @id is deprecated, current implementations could ignore issues 
regarding it and new implementations would be allowed to not support it 
at all.

Choosing between @id and @name is much better for ascending compatibility.

BTW, actions, such as setfocus, toggle and dispatch, should be extended 
to work with @name.
