 Otherwise when jumplink to the target of an anchor link by TOC or direct
 deep link the arriving user does not see the heading and may be
 disoriented or not get the context at first.

 There are even ready made WordPress plugins to do this like i.e.:
 https://wordpress.org/plugins/page-scroll-to-id/
 and I assume also some themes have such offset-compensation-mechanisms
 built in.

 See screenshots of the problem and the proposed solution:
