There were a number of bugs in Tapestry where the generated names of client-side elements matched the names of JavaScript functions attached to the Form object (an unwanted "convenience" of the DOM is that elements inside the Form become named properties of the Form ... just got to love JavaScript), causing client-side exceptions. Tapestry now reserves those names (reset,submit,select,id,method,action,onsubmit) to prevent collisions.
This is an example of the codified experience that has accumulated in Tapestry.
