I am suggesting that when you export a subtree or a region, and you have a link to an anchor (e.g. a link to a <<...>>>), and that link is broken, because the referent is outside of the subtree or region, we can do this: Get the link referent normally (just as we do in the .org file) Append it to a URL provided in a property for the subtree that contains it That way, you can export one subtree as a blog entry, and another subtree as a blog entry, and if links point to the other subtree, they will get exported properly -- as long as you supply the base URL.
