Would using hAtom be a viable option for you, as the second tool
apparently does already? hAtom puts some annotations in the HTML file
that allow it to guarantee that entry ids are preserved across the
translation. So it can't give useful output from just a plain HTML
file, but it can guarantee to satisfy the Atom requirements.
