Holy heck!  Am I the *only* person that didn't know you could do this??  For
those that didn't know this, the RFC that covers this is:

http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/links.html#h-12.1.1

"Destination anchors in HTML documents may be specified either by the A
element (naming it with the name attribute), or by any other element (naming
with the id attribute)."
