I've tried some experiments looking for a hint:

    # file: test.htm

    <html>
    <body>

    <p>This text stand for an example of text containing
    a <a name="B3Pa9-5ZRIx-1">bookmarked target</a> bookmark.</p>

    <p>So let's go all together to visit the bookmarked target
    clicking on <a href="#B3Pa9-5ZRIx-1">this link</a>.</p>

    </body>
    </html>

First try:

    # test.htm converted at http://www.siafoo.net/html.xml

    This text stand for an example of text containig a `target <>`_ bookmark.

    So let's go all together to visit the target clicking on `this
    link <#B3Pa9-5ZRIx-1>`_ .

that is not what I'm looking for;

    # pandoc -f html test.htm -s -o test.rst

    This text stand for an example of text containig a target bookmark.

    So let's go all together to visit the target clicking on `this
    link <#B3Pa9-5ZRIx-1>`__.

that is not what I'm looking for;

    # html2rst.py taken from
http://docutils.sourceforge.net/sandbox/cliechti/html2rst/html2rst.py
    # python html2rst.py test.htm > test.rst

    This text stand for an example of text containig a target bookmark.

    So let's go all together to visit the target clicking on `this
    link`_.

    .. _this link: #B3Pa9-5ZRIx-1

Not a good try.

Is there a better way ?
