hot take: web browsers should consider IDs implicit for heading tags and sections, based on their text content and position (HTML5’s outline algorithm seems like a place to start!), so that you can deep link within any web page whether it was authored with that in mind or not

@cat ohhh, this would be really nice

too many times have i looked for the closest id for a section, and instead just resorted to telling someone to Ctrl + F

@thingywott I’m still kind of baffled that nobody’s done this yet
