[Docutils-users] Specifying explicit ID tags in HTML output

[David A. <Da...@Ac...>]

In some documents, I'd like the id tags associated with anchors to remain 
constant in the face of section name changes.  In other words, I'd like to mark up

Requirement 123123: This part may change
----------------------------------------

With something, so that I could always refer to http:/.../foo.html#something

and have it point to the <a> tag which docutils currently generates with the 
id "requirement-this-part-may-change" or something like that.

A proposal would be to use markup like:

	#permanent: Changeable title

which would produce:

	<div class="section" id="permanent">
	<h1>
	<a id="permanent" name="changeable-title">permanent: Changeable 	title</a>
	</h1>

Is there already something somewhere that does that?
