Ah, OK, sorry, I didn't notice that. But, anyway, I'm not sure if I'd want to put such markers into all pages of my TiddlyWiki. And while that would still be _possible_, I'm sure that there is also a use case for linking to fragments of local HTML files that you really don't want to change or can't change. Imagine being a non-privileged user and linking via file:///path/to/software/manual.html#feature to some section of the manual of a software installed by an admin user, or to some downloaded e-book or archived web page. > Org IDs in external files -- which I propose to be in ID markers -- > are as unbreakable as you can arrange in a practical way. BTW that reminds me of purple numbers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purple_Numbers), which I have seen in some wikis. But they don't scale as well as your ID markers.
