Comment (by druidjaidan):

 Have to agree.  There are lots of reasons you might need to use a prefix
 that don't involve processing more than one form.  I ran into this because
 we had a form on the page that acted as a context switcher, changing it's
 value caused the form to be processed, changed a session value, and
 reloaded the page given the new context.  This caused an id collision
 anytime the user was on a page that happened to have a form that had the
 same field name (really common considering the context was a FK).
