[css-view-transitions-2] Allow an auto-generated view-transition-name that doesn't default to ID · Issue #10995 · w3c/csswg-drafts (original) (raw)

In #8320, we resolved on using view-transition-name: auto as a way to generate names, using the element's id if exists.
In the resolution, we said that we'll have another value for generating the name without falling back to ID, and perhaps yet another one for generating it only from ID.

Proposing:

• Use view-transition-name: self as the keyword for generating the name ignoring ID. Other proposals that were raised were from-element and element-uuid().
• No need for "generate from ID", once we have attr(<ident> id).
