It's difficult to give a hidden form element an ID at this moment because theme_hidden only uses #name and #value. #id's are really useful when working with javascripts.

This can be fixed by overriding the function in your theme, but of course that's not the best approach for something this simple.

To add the id, replace form.inc, line 903:

function theme_hidden($element) {
  return '<input type="hidden" name="'. $element['#name'] . '"  id="'. $element['#id'] . '" value="'. check_plain($element['#value']) ."\" " . drupal_attributes($element['#attributes']) ." />\n";
}
