I understand from:

  If the URI contains a fragment identifier, it must point to a
  specific binding element (by id) within an XBL subtree in the
  specified document, and that element must be a direct child of
  an xbl element that does not itself have an xbl element as an
  ancestor; if these conditions are not met then the URI is in error.

that authors cannot use xml:id instead of the id attribute. If they
should be able to use xml:id instead, the reference to "by id" above
is misleading.
