In terms of DOM behavior, in Gecko we have been shipping an "id" 
attribute on Element.prototype for a good long while now.  We haven't 
moved "className" to Element.prototype yet.

In terms of the behavior of the content attribute, I don't think we've 
made id="" on random nodes do anything interesting.
