There is no ID designated to be used for the current element. Rather, aria-current is an idref that refers to (the id of) whatever happens to be the current element. When the current element changes, the idref is updated accordingly. This is entirely consistent with how id/idref pairs are meant to be used.

The only requirement is that whichever element is current has an id, and that aria-current be updated to refer to it as needed.
