Whichever method we land on here, I would like to call out that we would need the `ident()` function from #9141 when dynamically constructing an ident.
It might not be relevant for `view-transition-name`, but would be for other properties, specifically shorthands.
Cross-posting [this comment](https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/9141#issuecomment-2044615510) from #9141 to clarify:

If `--id` in that example were `block`, you’d end up with `scroll-timeline: inline "tl-" block` when not using the `ident()` function. I don’t think the parser would like that 😅 (nor would I, as an author trying to read the code).
