I disagree. This might be adequate for web communication like this
which is bound to HTML but nothing else. No one who uses e.g. the
python26.chm document or a derived PDF can easily find what we are
talking about.

I also wonder about convenience? Not a single RFC, public spec,
standards document or any other important reference omits chapter
enumerations.
