I like the directive syntax personally, but I'll brainstorm a wee bit:

Distinguishing between [*] as radio button and [*****] as password
bothers me for some reason.   How about [.] as radio button? (or maybe
[o] as I can't see a submit button with only a single o character as
its text)

In order to name these elements how about one of these:

	[...]=name
	[...][name]
	name=[...]
        [name=...]		# you've already said this one
        [...=name]
        [(name)...]		# a named hidden would be [(name)(...)]
	[...(name)]		# similar as above
