Re: IDs w/ human friendly component

[Daniel Clemente <n142857@gmail.com>]

  Have you tried changing the strange ID to the ID that you want? (e.g. 7f3b531b-f1c9-41aa-854b-37235500495f → introduction). They should be unique.
  I use my manually written IDs for some important headers which I want to detect from outside org.
  In addition there's CUSTOM_ID, but I think that's the id="…" you want in HTML exports.
