Pandoc won't produce duplicate identifiers.  If you have two
sections named "Bar", the first will get the id "bar", and the
second will get "bar-1", etc. See the README section on header
identifiers.

Also see the --id-prefix option.

The trouble is, my links are generated by code, and the code can't
easily predict whether it should link to bar-23 or bar-32; in fact it
currently doesn't know that 'bar' is wrong, so all links end up
pointing at the first instance of 'bar'.  However it's natural to know
which chapter you're linking to, so having a predictable per-chapter
prefix would solve such problems.  This isn't just a problem with
generated links, it gets much worse if you're trying to do the job
manually.
My reading of '--id-prefix' suggests I can't use it per chapter and
still have inter-chapter links working.  Is that right?
