I found a really really bad workaround. One can use the title attribute to pass a id property.

fixMarkerId = function () {
                $('div[title^="mtg_"]').each(function (index, elem) {
                    el = $(elem);
                    el.attr('id', el.attr('title'));
                    el.removeAttr('title');
                });
            },
            tryAgainFixMarkerId = function () {
                if ($('div[title^="mtg_"]').length) {
                    fixMarkerId();
                } else {
                    setTimeout(function () {
                        tryAgainFixMarkerId();
                    }, 100);
                };
            }

if ($('div[title^="mtg_"]').length) {
                fixMarkerId();
            } else {
                setTimeout(function () {
                    tryAgainFixMarkerId();
                }, 100);
            };

I would strongly not recommend this solution for any production environment. But for now I use it so that I can keep developing. But still looking for a better solution.
