Allow DnD containers to be referenced another way than solely by the jsId

[guest]

Provide a way for a developer to be able to reference a DnD container some other way than using the jsId object directly. For example, perhaps there could be some function getContainer("jsId_name_string"), which would return the object which was created from the jsId attribute for that container.

mark all (open) tickets w/blank milestones to be "tbd"; their milestones need to be set to a version number or to "future"

i'm trying to identify stale tickets. if there is a need to keep this ticket open, please replace the "needsreview" keyword with "reviewed". if there is no need to keep this ticket open then please close it.

i think this can be closed. You could use the dijit/registry if you really wanted DnD containers to get registered, although you'd need to subclass dojo.dnd.Source to register itself. But basically, I don't see a problem with using data-dojo-id (nee jsId).
