More troublingly, this also breaks all the footnotes. We can fix the
headings by explicitly setting an anchor, but I don't think the footnotes
are fixable without fixing things in Sphinx.
I'm not sure where we landed with this, but it feels like the single-HTML
output from Sphnix is kind of broken, and publishing that on the web site
has caused various problems. I'm not sure how to get to the multi-page
version on www.debian.org, and indeed the anchors and table of contents in
Policy are not working right now on the web site because of this problem.
I feel like the single-page HTML version may have been a failed
experiment, at least pending further work on Sphinx, and we should just
publish the multi-page version. What do other people think? (Adding
debian-www for their opinion as well.)
Not having working footnotes feels to me like kind of a showstopper.
