Subject: [PATCH] CUSTOM_ID as section label in latex export
When exporting to HTML, custom ids of headlines become references to
the resulting section in the exported document. This is both more
stable and more readable than using section numbers. This commit adds
this option to the latex exporter.
Thanks for the patch.
Though, it isn't as stable as relying on section numbers: there is no
guarantee the custom id will be unique nor that it will not contain any
forbidden character.
This patch also breaks cross references, which expects labels to be
built from section number (see `org-latex-link').
Oh, I see now that I can simply use [[#id]] links and they will be
translated as appropriate. This will then also resolve these references
if I export the paper to HTML.
Thanks for the explanation,
Since you (almost?) never need to write \ref{custom-id} in the Org
buffer, I don't think it is bad to keep current label system.
Another option would be to have both \label{sec-...} and
\label{custom-id}. But it would require the user to check validity of
its id.
