[html-formfu] Increment id on block elements

It certainly is we are using it more and more

I created a new Block element class with the prepare_id method.  I
thought it would be tidier to access my data via a filter rather than
an action but unfortunately I seem unable to access it in either
plugins or filters:

in my plugin/filter

$var = "rt_1";
$self->parent()->form->get_all_element($var)->content('value was: '.$value);

fails with 'Can't call method "content" on an undefined value ' .
Viewing the source the elements exist.  Am I trying to access the
values before prepare_id has been run?  hence is this not possible?
