feature request: easier style attributes

OK, one more, again a repeat of an old request.

Pandoc Markdown has this incredibly easy way to specify html attributes (
http://pandoc.org/README.html#header-identifiers):

----
# My Header {#myid .class1 .class2}
----

I find this much easier to read, write, and maintain than the org-mode
equivalent:

#+ATTR_HTML: :id myid :class class1 class2
* My Header

I would love to have something like the pandoc syntax available within
org.  What do other people think, and how hard would this be to implement?

Does this do what you want?

* my header
:PROPERTIES:
:CUSTOM_ID: myid
:HTML_CONTAINER_CLASS: class1 class2
:END:

Yes, that's true and I see the advantages, I just still prefer a shorthand;
it's easier to look at and for me at least, less distracting to write.
