The current Captcha (5.x-3.0-rc1) [1] and Shortform [2] each attempt
to do this in very interesting ways.  Shortform's form inspector alone
makes me love the module (though it needs a release!).

I say "attempt" because the lack of unique form IDs prevents them from
working reliably.

So, I would like some more unique form IDs, but I know those should be
filed as bugs on the individual projects - not as something against
FormAPI.
