        * v2.1.78.

        * Headings now generate a named anchor.  This enables things like
        page contents.  The current scheme is
        '#section-<pagename>-<heading>', where both the <pagename> and
        <heading> are WikiNames.  The WikiName of the heading is done in
        exactly the same way as with normal WikiPages.  For more
        information, see NamedHeadings in the jspwiki_samplepages.zip.
        Suggested by Paul Downes.

The generated named anchors do not respect (wrong word i know ;-) ) german special charakters (umlaute).

Eg: in Sandbox

!Ä

<h4><a name="section-Sandbox-%C4">Ä</a></h4>

Cause of this headlines with special charakters can not be used for handmade page contents.

Actually, I think your word is correct. Hm. Actually, this was the best way I could think of doing it; URIs do not allow any characters outside US-ASCII, so we have to encode them somehow.

Fixed in 2.1.133.
