That's very creative! I hadn't thought of that. I think that could be a 
usable solution that would be backwards compatible with current UAs.

My only concern would then be the extreme edge cases it could expose and 
how they would be handled/rendered, For example:

<dl>
<dt id="term1">term 1</dt>
<dt id="term2">term 2</dt>
<dd for="term 2">description 2<dd>
<dd for="term1">description 1</dd>
</dl>
