Why does everyone always claim that readers would have to "sort through" lists? Did no one get the memo that redirects can now anchor to a heading within the article? No one would have to "search through" a large list if the redirects are set up properly, they get taken right to it.
In theory yes. In practice that doesn't work in all browsers and hits problems when people redo the headings in the list.

LOL, not sure if that was serious or a joke, but fixing it would require what, infiltrating all browser companies and making their products not suck?

Was more intended around "if the heading changes the redirect won't work to the heading anymore." In practice, I've seen this happen very, very rarely, and the redirect can certainly be changed to match the new header (fixing it). As to browsers, I've never had such a problem with Firefox, I just tested with Epiphany and it worked fine, and I've never had any such problems with IE. (Can't test that now, but I might try it next time I use a public Win machine.) What does it -not- work with? I've seen that bogeyman brought up when merges were discussed before, but no one seems able to say -what- it doesn't work with.
