This is a good description of the motivation from my point of view.

I’m not sure what you mean. 

Are you thinking of CUSTOM_ID links, and whether they would behave consistently with a search string to this proposal? Like: [[custom-id:my-id::*H2][H2]]

Or using custom id as a search string? Like: [[id:abc::#my-id][Description]]
