Description

The problem is related to XHTML Strict 1.0 validation which does not allow the attribute "name" for form tags, and when use id attribute instead of name then the function $this->request->getArgument('member') does not work anymore ("member" is the name of the form).

[~TASK] Fluid (ViewHelpers): Added argument "objectName" to form ViewHelper. This is now the recommended way to specify the name of the object that is bound to a form! If objectName is not specified, the name attribute will be used as object name for backwards-compatibility reasons. This resolves #6521

This is indeed a problem.. But using the id would be dangerous as the same id can't be used multiple times on one page. IMO we should not set any attribute to the object name at all - or why would we need that?
Instead we could rename the argument to objectName so you could still set the name attribute explicitly.. But that would be a breaking change..
Maybe we should add it in a backwards-compatible way so that objectName overrules name.

@Sebastian: If you agree, please re-assign this to me and I'll fix it asap!
