Hi devs,
When you want a local link you use something like [[label>>#anchor]]
and it will produce an XHTML like <a
href="/xwiki/bin/view/CurrentSpace/CurrentDocument#myanchor">label</a>.
IMO this is not very good since:
* it's doing lot's of useless work (resolving the reference, getting
the corresponding XWikiDocument to finally generate the URL thanks to
URLFactory
* it's breaking any included local reference since it will be resolved
based on the source document and not the current document which makes
sense when you target a specific document but not when you asked for a
local reference
Note that it used to be that way (and I tough it was still the case)
and I don't remember why this has been changed.
So I proposed to put back the specific handling of empty reference:
produce <a href="#myanchor">label</a> in the XHTML renderer for the
previous example.
WDYT ?
Here is my +1

PS: We'll need to mention somewhere in the XWiki Syntax Guide, in the Release Notes,
or both how we "officially" handle the empty reference since we haven't done
that in the past, and explain that if the user wants a link to the current specific
document they'll need to explicitly use the document name as in
[[label>>MyPage#anchor]], instead of [[label>>#anchor]] since otherwise
including this page may give a different result.
