I have a use case where a certain location in a document can have two

Can you elaborate on that? Why cannot you use the same id attribute
value in all references to an element?
How about a new attribute "alt-ids" which would take a space-separated
list of additional anchors?
What would be the use of such additional identifiers?
The only thing I can imagine right now is a situation where you have an
existing id attribute and references to it all around but now need to
refer from a context that imposes its own restrictions on the syntax.
Say, you have id="παράδειγμα" and you need to refer to the element using
a URL like http://example.com/foo.html#παράδειγμα"; but cannot because
the URL needs to be used in an environment where Greek letters cannot be
used. But this sounds like a rather rare occasion.
