Re: [docbook-apps] xml:id on certain DocBook elements doesn't produce id's in HTML output

["Bob Stayton" <bobs@sagehill.net>]

It is also the case that the 'generate.id.attributes' feature is not yet fully 
implemented in the stylesheets.  Some elements generate an id, but others still 
generate a named anchor instead.  I'd like to finish that feature before the next 
release.

   Exactly for that reason, I need to make a link to them, i.e.:

<screenshot xml:id="some-screen" xreflabel="Nice screen">
       <mediaobject>
         <imageobject>
           <imagedata fileref="screen.png" />
         </imageobject>
       </mediaobject>
</screenshot>

<para>Look at the <xref linkend="some-screen" /> to see it's awesomeness.</para>
