logic:iterate tag id can destroy attributes of same name

Well, choosing two different names is really not very practical, certainly across all 
our existing pages, 
but even in a new page it's kind of a pain to have to watch out for this sort of thing.

Many programming languages either scope the iteration variable or warn you if you 
might clobber a 
pre-existing one.

It really should at least clean up after itself. Not clobbering or hiding existing 
existing attributes would 
be preferable. I wonder how many people have code out there that actually depends on 
the iteration 
variable sticking around after the iteration is complete.

One option would be to add a new attribute indicating that it should have this new 
behavior (or the old). 
Adding that option to every one of our iterate tags is still easier than trying to 
determine if we've 
conflicted with names.
