No, it is still there. But form snippet care about class and id
attributes not quite any custom attributes.

I wonder if it works to disable the button asynchronously into a
setTimeout call so th form would be submitted and browser sould
execute th disable code after half of second ... haven't tried it so
maybe it is a long shot.

(mostly). How about not disabling the button but make it
invisible? ... would that make a difference?
