Discussion of some prior art leading up to Google's text fragment links.

There is some research in link types and citation types to build on, e.g. https://sparontologies.github.io/cito/current/cito.html

An argument for content-based identifiers. I think it's wanted to link different versions of a document with each other to allow for updates

Deep links via content locators, see https://github.com/jakobib/hypertext2019#readme

These "zippered lists" are the first mention of what would later become known as "Xanalogical storage", and ultimately as "transclusions".

But what about links I want to add to documents that I don't own? "Layers for the Web"

Doesn't Xanadu keep stuff separate somehow?
