Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] CSS view transition auto name generation (Issue #1001)

Thanks for raising that here Jake.  I can see how this is potentially problematic.

Is your point that this is a straight-up misfeature and it shouldn't exist at all because match-element is enough for SPA where as MPA can't rely on auto unless there is exceptional id-allocation discipline?

Or, do you have an alternative approach in mind?  Is that alternative as simple as an appropriately-scoped `[id] { view-transition-name: attr(id type(<custom-ident>)) }`?

(We are given repeated reminders how the TAG and standards groups more generally have no direct ability to affect what ships in browsers, so I doubt we can do anything about Safari plans.)
