Well - the ideal solution would be a warning (or error message) with a
reference to the link. At the moment, a link to a non existing file is
exported, a link to a section in a non existing produces a cryptic error message.
At the moment, I have no clue how I can find the link.
So I would hope for
1) consistent behavior for the two cases
2) a meaningful warning which helps to find the culprit
3) an html file, where the links do not work, but the export is fine.
or, if 3) is not possible, meaningful error messages which actually help
me to track down the error (I only found out what was causing this error
accidentally)

Sure - this is obvious.

To fix this, I have to find the link fierst...
