I agree with Kurt, for the reasons that he gave in the post following this one.
If we (hmm, I mean: the coders) decide to implemented
the index function
and everybody is still unhappy, then we could think about anchors
*inside* an article (but I doubt that it's worth another tag).
However, I think that these internal anchors would be a very good idea.
There's many a time that I've wanted to use them, but never external anchors.
