Webmention and fragments

The development of marginalia has demonstrated that Webmention can be used to comment on specific parts of the content of a post.

This likely makes sense to document explicitly as a Webmention extension, i.e.:

• Webmention Fragment support
  • How and when a webmention sender should use a fragment in the source and or target URLs
  • How should a webmention receiver handle a fragment in the source and or target URLs

Where a fragment could be:

• plain old URL fragment to an element with that ID in the HTML
• fragmention
• media fragment
