Well fragment is meant to refer to a label within a non varying content.
Getting a different entity back requires parameterisation - query part
or url parameters. For instance, the dir part parameter I'm proposing is
usable (in principale - not right now) by bzrweb to show the correct
revision, whereas a fragment would not be visible to the web server and
would be ignored.
