This looks like a separate issue (no id munging similar to the XHTML4-style PHP behavior), so reopening.
Restrictions on id attributes in HTML5: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/elements.html#the-id-attribute Those same restrictions also apply to <a> anchors since page-anchors in #-style use element ids. RDF about attribtues dont accept spaces either. So, using the id-element restrictions on the ref-target and using that in <span id>, <li about/id>, <a href> should work.

I'd love to leave the weird XHTML4 encoding I added a while ago behind. We should investigate whether people are linking to current citations from other pages. If they do, then we might want to consider not breaking those links for now.

Those could be addressed with oldid links, if the old versions kept the same ids; tho that may be more work.
