`auto_identifiers` causing duplicate identifiers

`auto_identifiers` causing duplicate identifiers

[Shir]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 1065 bytes --]

I have a `test.md` that looks like this:

```
# test

# test {#test}
```

I ran `pandoc test.md --to latex --from markdown` and expected to get the 
following:

```
\hypertarget{test}{%
\section{test}\label{test-1}}

\hypertarget{test}{%
\section{test}\label{test}}
```

Instead, I got:

```
[WARNING] Duplicate identifier 'test' at line 6 column 1
\hypertarget{test}{%
\section{test}\label{test}}

\hypertarget{test}{%
\section{test}\label{test}}
```

Turning `auto_identifiers` off "fixes" this by not giving the first 
instance a label. But shouldn't `auto_identifiers` be able to automatically 
label headings while taking into account existing IDs?

The current design expects that, either you're going to
manually specify identifiers when you need them, or you'll
use auto_identifiers.  The mix can be problematic.

The problem is that auto_identifiers is enabled by default,
and using explicit identifiers doesn't turn it off.

Why don't you submit this as a bug report on GitHub?
