New issue 25026 by [email protected]: Noncompliance with XPointer  
Framework Standard
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=25026

Chrome Version       : 4.0.221.6
URLs (if applicable) : http://www.w3.org/TR/xptr-framework/
Other browsers tested:
   Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
      Safari 4: FAIL
   Firefox 3.x: OK with FXPointer extension
          IE 7: FAIL
          IE 8: FAIL

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Using a URL in the address bar fails to recognize/parse the xpointer
suffix to the URL.
2. Clicking/following an anchor link in a web page fails to recognize/parse
the xpointer suffix to the URL.
3. There is no way to glean the xpointers or even anchored sections of a
web document. With FXPointer extension in Firefox, it is possible to right
click to get a usable anchored link or xpointer link.

What is the expected result?
The document in the new web page should at least scroll to the xpointer
indicated section.

What happens instead?
The new web page ignores the xpointer suffix and does not scroll to the
appropriate section.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.

Please do not ignore XPointer standard. It is a major HTML/XML standard
that provides huge benefits to the web. For example, my XPointer page:
