md titles are html-rendered with name="" instead of id=""

[dascritch]

A section header in markdown is rendered as
h3 > a[name]

To anchor an element in URL, the id attribute must be used

The name attribute is reserved for usage in form elements. Its availability as a id is a heritance from Netscape days and should not have been used here.

Alas, as I read in your README.md, « Note that the id attribute is not whitelisted. »
So how can I patch this ?

Hi @dascritch! Thanks for the report. You're talking about the anchor links on every Markdown page, right?

This is one of those weird cases where the rendering is not handled by this library, but actually by html-pipeline, which we also use 1.

Here's the TOC filter: https://github.com/jch/html-pipeline/blob/master/lib/html/pipeline/toc_filter.rb

I suggest opening a report there, and/or making a PR to swap the name for id.

Cheers!
