[#1042] - Inconsistent element ID in JFormFieldUserGroup

- # 1042
Adding some options to one my extensions, I found that the JFormFieldUserGroup field type generates an element ID that is inconsistent with other field types.
"usergroup" field type creates a concatenated ID string (no underscores) while other field types generate a consistent (underscored) ID.
Example:
<field type="usergroup" name="myUserGroup">generates this id: jformparamsmyUserGroup
For comparison:
<field type="accesslevel" name="myAccessLevel">generates this id: jform_params_myAccessLevel
I'm going to write detection and a workaround in my code, but consistent operation would be nice.
joomla-framework closed it and said it was a joomla-cms issue here:
