Hashed URIs can bring other problems.
For example, if I have a service http://mydata.org/uri that takes a
URI and returns what it knows about the thing identified by that URI
and I pass it a hash URI, e.g. http://ci.nii.ac.jp/naid/110006281382#article
, my browser will trim #article and send http://ci.nii.ac.jp/naid/110006281382
to my client.
But, http://ci.nii.ac.jp/naid/110006281382 is NOT the URI of interest
(it's a web page, http://ci.nii.ac.jp/naid/110006281382#article
identifies the article itself). So, I have to fuss with URL encoding
and Apache mod_rewrite to get http://ci.nii.ac.jp/naid/110006281382#article
past the browser and web server and to my client.
It's little things like this that make like *cough* interesting.
