[Dojo-interest] label for tag breaks up with dojo

[Jon Sykes]

So you could for example make that:

		// strip IDs to prevent dupes. removeAttribute() doesnt care if  
attribute doesnt exist
		if (baseNode.tagName != "INPUT" && baseNode.tagName != "TEXTAREA")  
baseNode.removeAttribute('id');

Just to cover your input and textarea with labels issues.

But it doesn't really address the larger issue that ID's get stripped  
(and probably rightly so).

Maybe there need to be some way of "linking" labels with inputs on  
the fly with guaranteed unique naming conventions.
