Hi Markdown folks:

I wanted to see if people have feelings or opinions about using fragment identifiers with Markdown (and Markdown-derivative, such as pandoc, kramdown, etc.) content.

It is useful to say things like

readme.md#how-to-install

So that a Markdown editor could scroll to the right content.

To my mind, the prime candidates for this treatment are the [link reference identifiers][lref] and for some formats, the attributed text {#blahblah }. Link reference identifiers are part of the original Markdown syntax. On the other hand, they don't produce any identifiers in HTML/XHTML. Clearly attributed text is useful to identify both Markdown and output regions.

[lref]: http://daringfireball.net/projects/markdown/syntax#link

Thanks,

Sean
