Vars in the template are all in the ctx.locals namespace; which is also
merged with the request.  If you have some vars you don't want to be
messed with by the request, prefix them with an _ (i.e.
ctx.locals._username) so they can't be hacked with.

I work with some good designers who know the client side stuff really
well so they usally just give me the JS/CSS code ;)

Yes, any attrib albatross doesn't handel or need to change it just
passed though; so id, name, onchange, etc will all work.
