Man page chapters link to #end

Hi there,

I was just taking a look at a man page through the FreeBSD web site:

https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=cloudabi-run

What I noticed is that the chapters of the man page are all anchors.
>From the HTML:

<a name="YAML_TAGS" href="#end"><b>YAML TAGS</b></a>

It's nice that they all have a name attribute. Question: would it make
sense to let the href point to the #name as well, instead of linking
them all to #end? That way you can click on a chapter name to obtain a
link that you can share with others.

Thanks,
