 The IE plug-in interface strips of fragment identifiers when a URI is
 passed across the boundary.

Er, IE works fine with fragment identifiers in http resources, as this 
thread shows - IE strips fragment references from file:// protocol stuff, 
but it's happy across plugin boundaries, the issue is file:// and I can't 
see this as something that needs fixing, their being no standard behaviour 
for them to violate.

Of course there is! IE has been doing it this way for many years, surely
that's a standard by now...?

But, you're right, there's no Spec that tells them what to do in this
circumstance. I would personally expect that it would behave locally just as
it does on the Web, and I think that would be both intuitive to users and
useful for developers, though...

Maybe we should file a request to the IE7 team?

Regards-
Doug
