I’d suggest adding actual links using the fragment and xml:id attribute (mapped to HTML id in the stylesheet), but that wouldn’t play nicely with pagination shifting entries.&lt;p&gt;You can even do things like publish an Atom entry document for each entry, so they have their own paths, but that that URL is still an Atom document. Basically, if you want to, you can &lt;i&gt;completely&lt;/i&gt; realistically have a full blog where everything is in Atom containers instead of HTML containers.</text></comment>

Doesn&amp;#x27;t this make it worse?</text></comment>
