 Gutenberg editor interprets internal hyperlinks when copy/pasting. Not
 good.

 I wrote a blog post with a table of contents, several chapters, and
 return-to-TOC -links. Something like this:

 <h2 id="toc">Table of contents</h2>
 <a href="#chapter1">Chapter 1</a>
 <a href="#chapter2">Chapter 2</a>

 ...

 <h2 id="chapter1">Chapter 1</a>
 Really important stuff here, really.
 <a href="#toc">Return to table of contents</a>

 Now, If I ever need to EDIT this page and I copy/paste any of these links
 in the editor, then #chapter1 is no longer #chapter1 but an explicit link
 to the admin-interface. And #toc is no longet #toc but an explicit link.

 Those explicit links work as long as I stay logged in, but when the world
 (my friends probably) accesses my writings, there will be no page-internal
 links but instead references to the admin side.

 I want #ref to stay #ref, explicitly, when copy/pasting.
