I think you are both talking about the same thing but have different judgment calls about it. Say you want to export an org file, then share the link to a friend to a heading, like https://mysite/#orgd260798 Imagine that for some reason, you re export the file, then new ids are generated and the links becomes broken. Nicolas Goaziou, I know you understand this and propose to use CUSTOM_ID to make those ids static. But IIUC, Samuel Wales does not know in advance what heading he will share, so he would have to add CUSTOM_ID everywhere, just in case. This sounds like a lot of unnecessary work. The solution of tec¹ appears to be a new generation of the html ids based on the heading content rather than apparently randomly generated, making the generated link become the same across new generations. I hope it clarified the discussion.
