@brandonkelly because we’re having to use this method for more than input IDs — and sometimes arrays of IDs as well — I wonder if it’s worth (a) updating the namespacing method to namespaceId and (b) adding a method that takes multiple IDs. 🤔

@gcamacho079 Where are you seeing this? Multiple space-separated IDs within aria-describedby and aria-labelledby should already be getting namespaced properly, via craft\helpers\Html::namespaceHtml() / namespaceAttributes().

@brandonkelly one place I'm seeing this is the "Base Path" field in the Filesystem settings. In the screenshot below, the aria-labelledby and aria-describedby IDs don't have a namespace:

Ahh, I see, those properties get passed to the Vue component via JS, so not actually present in the HTML that gets sent to Html::namespaceHtmlHtml().
