Comment:

 In [changeset:"50961" 50961]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="50961"
 Widgets: Make sure `WP_Widget` constructor creates a correct `classname`
 value for a namespaced widget class.

 This reverts the changes to `id_base` from [50953] due to backward
 compatibility concerns, and instead focuses on the `id` and `class`
 attributes specifically.

 With this change, any backslashes in the `id` or `class` attributes for a
 namespaced widget class are converted to underscores, making it easier to
 style the output or target the widget with JavaScript.

 Follow-up to [50953].

 Fixes #44098.
