Found while working on components.hybriel.worldapi.org #6.

Repro: button { data-page = it.target } or button { ariaHidden = 'true' }

Observed: data-page fails to compile (Invalid assignment target); a quoted "aria-hidden" compiles but camelCase ariaHidden is rendered literally as ariaHidden, not aria-hidden

Expected: A way to set aria-* / data-* attributes

Taken. Ruling (reversible in a word): an attribute name that is not an identifier is written quoted, "aria-hidden" = "true" or "data-page" = it.target. It renders verbatim and binds like any attribute, rows included. A camelCase name is not rewritten. Documented in COMPONENTS.md.

Done on master (41082934). Quoted names such as "aria-hidden" = … and "data-page" = it.target already rendered and bound correctly, rows included. An unquoted data-page = … is now a located error that names the quoted form. Documented in COMPONENTS.md and plugins/web/README.md.
