Interface Builder undocumented interface fields

If I look at the attributes of panes in the Interface Builder (in LWL
5.0.2), I see a couple of fields I can't find any documentation on,
e.g. Control Id and Widget Name (though there may be others).  By
experimentation I've deduced that these two fields expect a form, but
beyond that I've no idea what they're for, or how to use them.  Any
clues out there?

Or is the lack of documentation a sign that I just shouldn't worry
about it?  :)

There is an example using widget-name in 
examples/capi/elements/widget-name.lisp
