If you wanted to send someone one to the middle of the page will the server correctly handle <.../+foo#middle>? But on Bruce's original question, anchor names appear in the UI in the status line in various browsers, and are relevant if you have to hand-enter the URL, and in that case mnemonic quality is a plus. As Kynn says, it is not a hard requirement; and at times it is hard to do with the rest of the URI. But all parts of a URI-reference including the anchor name or #fragment part are better to the extent that they can be made mnemonic.
