I think that the most likely explanation for the kebab-case part is a navigation path of some sort.

dojo.byId('html;------sites------dailywtf------comments------index.html;;12').setAttribute('isFrist','true');

It could be generated from some kind of physical file structure or (poorly done) sitemap.

Clearly you have no VAX/VMS in your background --- ";12" means the twelfth version of that element ID.

Man, now I'm so mad at myself for not remembering that! I was the last graduating class to have classes which used the VAX mainframe when I was in college! I thought the file versioning features were actually quite cool! (And when I worked Helldesk, got quite tired of students who stored their final term paper on a single floppy disk and came in in a panic when the disk died, as they often did- Norton could mostly save their asses, but c'mon, we gave you network storage! USE IT)

The first time I saw an ad for the movie The Purge, the initial thought which ran through my head was "set the PU*RGE symbol on student accounts to include /KEEP=3". Not that I have any nightmarish memories, nope.
