One of our developers has run into an issue that I can't see an easy
solution to.  However, I also can't believe that no one else has run into
the problem.

We have a form where we are using IE 5.5 (and above) DHTML to enable drop
and drag editing to reorder fields.  As the result of a drop, we determine
some positional values, place these values into the form and then attempt to
submit the form to the server where the values will be placed in a database.
In order to submit the form, the JavaScript code has to invoke the proper
HTML action for the form, which is named using the Cocoon standard
"cocoon-action-xxxx" format.  Since JavaScript attempts to resolve the
action name as an JavaScript object it eventually turns a string of this
format into three object names separated by  two minus signs and
subsequently blows up trying to subtract non-existent JavaScript objects
from each other.

One obvious fix would be to change Cocoon to not use "-" in the action
names. Given that this would break just about every Cocoon implementation in
the world I'm hoping that someone has run into this before and found a work
around on the JavaScript side of the world?
