Except, of course, it's illegal to have more than one element with the
same id in the same document.
Something like #header #branding makes the most sense if you have an
external stylesheet shared by multiple HTML pages, many of which have
an element with an id of "branding", and you want to apply certain
styles *only* when that "branding" element is inside of another
element with an id of "header".
