The other major problem is, that since this point
further the anchor links are no longer intuitive - we are now pushing people to constantly
think about prepending x when creating anchor links. No more simple copy pasting of the
headline.
As a side effect we are now adding unnecessary work to people from non-latin wikis by
pushing them to always switch to latin keyboard, or to click on edittools or whatever just
to get the one "x" character in editbox to create the anchor link.
The anchors of non-latin headers are already (latin) gibberish:
#.D0.A4.D0.B8.D0.BB.D1.8C.D0.BC.D0.BE.D0.B3.D1.80.D0.B0.D1.84.D0.B8.D1.8F
It doesn't seem reasonable to think that people could create anchors
in their head from text, except in special cases.
