It's trivial for immutable documents (so for Internet Drafts and RFCs).

What's non-trivial is a way to *expose* the anchors without using JS, or 
getting in the way of other things.

I think it's a nice-to-have, and also cheap to achieve. However, it 
should be sufficient that the anchor is just there waiting to be used. 
(For instance, there are browser extensions that highlight the closest 
anchor).
