Classes are not good enough. There needs to be one definitive ID that
wraps the content of all content-types, really.
This is necessary for scripts like the search-highlighter to work
properly. I thought #content was good enough, but it actually
(contradictory to its name) contains the add-item/state-menu.

Please keep the DOM in mind and not just css when deciding what are
classes and what are ids.
