Ah! I made a typo in the example above; here's the corrected one:
* Link source
:PROPERTIES:
:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: link-source
:END:
- Link to [[#link-dest][Link dest]]
* Link dest
:PROPERTIES:
:EXPORT_FILE_NAME: link-dest
:CUSTOM_ID: link-dest
:END:
("Link source" and "Link dest" subtrees are at the same level. So exporting
just "Link source" subtree does not 'see' the "Link dest" subtree.)
