I suppose we could do something if we wanted to,
but at present, we say that value of the xpointer
attribute is an XPointer, not an arbitrary fragment
identifier, and the RFC you quote about defines a
fragment identifier for plain text, but that's not
an XPointer.

So I don't think we're saying anything inaccurate.

Changing XInclude so that parse=text references 
allow a fragment identifier is an enhancement
request, and not something we necessarily have to do.

All the same, we could consider it.  As you say, it
would seem to require a 1.1 version.
