Suggested new default props

The request

The className prop, as I understand it, was added so that a consumer can safely assume that every component will take it. I feel as though we should also always allow:

• ref (React Ref)
• id (string)

Reasoning / thought process

• ID: Jump links or other unique
• ref: allowing this allows consumers to avoid using document.querySelector

I'm happy to create a PR to add a base type. Something like:

type BaseComponent = {
  className?: string
  id?: string
  ref?: RefObject<T>
}

Sounds reasonable @rfearing, I like it 👍. We'd need to wrap each component function with forwardRef to make refs work, but the others seem pretty straight forward to retrofit.
