This idea is more general and useful.

Can we get HTML problems with parameter names including '.' or '[]' (I
favour '.' as it would allow chaining.)

Would you do a more deeply change in FormFu, like adding an additional
parameter to fieldset like
- fieldset
my_parameters_belong_to: private
elements:
- type: Text
name: just_name
which will lead to 'private.just_name' in HTML code.
Or just use 'private.just_name' as name?
