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.
It is simply not possible to have one without the other. We can only code what the standards allow; and HTML only has one kind of link target. If it exists at all, it will be just as linkable from the outside as from the inside.
They will be linkable as "[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/foo#bar bar]", as well as from outside Wikipedia; you're right that this is unavoidable. But we don't have to provide support for it in the "[[...]]" markup. That is, we don't have to support "[[foo#bar]]" on [[Baz]]; we only need to support "[[#bar]]" on [[Foo]].
