title: Is using the same id multiple times on a page bad practice even when I am not parsing through the page?
body: <p>I understand that using the same id multiple times in a page creates malformed html. When using a jquery selector only the first element with the id will be returned, but in my application I shouldn't be running into this issue.</p>
  
  <p>I have list of items views that will all have an element I need to refer to. Since each item only has access to its own <code>$el</code> passing in an id selector for something will not produce any conflicts (even if there are multiple on the page).</p>
  
  <p>I've simulated what I mean in a fiddle <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/37wfs/" rel="noreferrer">here</a></p>
  
  <p>In this project I am not doing any page wide parses so I believe it should be safe. Is there any reason why I should not be doing this? </p>
