clarifying href with fragment to local descriptor #56

Closed fosrias closed 9 years ago

Currently, href requires a resolvable URL in the spec but indicates fragments can be used in section 2.2.7.2. The example there shows a fragment in a fully qualified URL. I think we want to allow and should clarify that using a fragment in an href to indicates a relative URL pointing to a descriptor in the document. This is not clear in the specs ATM IMO,. That is, we should support and make clear:

<descriptor id="first_name"/>
<descriptor id="last_name"/>
<descriptor id="person">
  <descriptor href="#first_name/>
  <descriptor href="#last_name/>
</descriptor>
