Comment:

 Sorry, maybe I wasn't clear enough.

 The problem is that the id attribute cannot be used to make anchor links.

 While using name is possible, the name attribute is obsolete and will come
 up as invalid code in a code validator when using a HTML5 theme. This is
 especially a problem for public institutions that are legally under the
 obligation to follow web accessibility guidelines.

 My suggestion is that the id attribute be allowed at least for headers
 <h2>...<h6> and possibly, the <a> tag.
