Currently, Woody uses the "id" attribute everywhere for identifiers be there on a defining element (e.g. <wd:field>) or a referring element (e.g. <wi:widget>).
Now that we will start to mix namespaces and have format & datatype dictionaries referred to by other files, it seems to me cleaner and more understandable to differentiate defining and referring attribute.
For this, I propose to keep the current "id" on defining elements and use "ref" attribute on referring elements.
Thoughts ? Is it nitpicking ?
