That overview case actually shouldn't cause this. Last I checked ids are based
off of the link portion of the text not the text portion. So this should only
show up if the link is the same. Naturally an "Overview" link won't link to the
same page for each overview section so that won't cause a bug.
Personally I feel like just ignoring this. The real ideal plan is to completely
ditch our cruddy sidebar syntax and replace it with a nice ui for controlling
navigation and some sort of widget block system to integrate those navigation
blocks into the sidebar along with the other things we put there. Our sidebar
dependence is a crutch that stops us from allowing wikis to use navigation that
actually fits instead of shoehorning it into a fixed sidebar.
When we fix that and switch to an interface we can ditch this whole issue. You
don't 'really' need an id for every single item like this. We only have it
because sometimes you want to target one of them and the only way we can allow
that is to put ids on all of them. With a proper ui based system we can default
to having no IDs (but implicitly give imported links the same ids as before)
and let you set your own custom id on links that actually need an id.
