The "for" attributes in labels are used heavily in zope.testbrowser
functional tests. If the human readable labels no longer correctly
identify the controls, control IDs or names would have to be used
instead, which is not conducive to good tests.
This is already broken for choice checkbox and radio widgets. In these
cases we have no 1:1 relationship between widget labels and controls.
(Though sometimes additional 1:1 labels within the widgets do work.)
AFAICS this is a limitation of the HTML specs and no change in zope can
really fix this. If the 'for' attribute is omitted for checkbox and
radio widgets (as Fred proposes) there is no relationship at all. If the
'for' attribute points to a div surrounding the controls (as I propose),
you can find the ListControl if you are willing to rely on that
non-standard behavior.
