That's fine. > Also, it is dangerous since a user could use \label{sec:4} for something > different. So we could replace ^org with a mapping, e.g. "headline" → "sec:" and "table" → "tab:". Then there's the added safety of TYPE-NUMBER and the expected prefix. > What is the real benefit of "sec:4" over "orgheadline4"? Aesthetics? Mostly aesthetics. "sec:4" is expected, though I have no numbers to back this claim. I would expect breakage following the change to be pretty rare, but one example of breakage is fancyref: \documentclass{article} \usepackage{fancyref} \begin{document} \section{h1} \label{sec:h1} \section{h2} \label{orgheading2} See \fref{sec:h1} and \fref{orgheading2} \end{document} >> It does not IMO.

Given my taste for "standard" prefixes, I would rather not have to label every section with some custom id to get a standard prefix in the output. —Rasmus -- I almost cut my hair, it happened just the other day
