| This is argument by assertion. Could you give some evidence?

Yes, I gave it in that example, and in my earlier prose description:
I want to be able to wrap up segments of a document so that wherever
you click you go somewhere, and I want to do the wrapping economically.

I was wrong to say that using IDs wouldn't work; it would if all elements
had IDs, there was no free text, and one used IDREFS to point to the
targets. 

But this is another matter.  The thing works fine right now; let's
leave it that way (and discuss the matter in detail in Chicago; I
feel I've written enough on it here).

Regards,
