Allow heading links that don't break wiki linking in other apps

The current syntax for linking to a heading is `[[note name#heading]]`. However , this breaks wiki-style links in apps that don't have heading links, or that use a different syntax. An alternate syntax for linking to a heading would solve this problem: `[[note name]]#heading`. This alternate syntax could be styled and displayed just like the existing syntax, but would allow the link-to-note to continue to function in wider range of other apps. This is consistent with one of the primary benefits of using plain text notes and markdown: portability. (Note that this change wouldn't have to break existing heading links; my proposed syntax could be in addition to the existing syntax -- users could choose.)

If I would have to choose, I would choose compatibility with Obsidian over the others, just due to sheer size.

Oh got it you mean support both types. It depends on how many users are also fully using the other apps. It's usually Obsidian.

Which app is this? With Obsidian, the NotePlan link style works fine.

nopi: nvUltra, The Archive, 1Writer (on iOS) ... I could name more I'm sure

ok. I’m interested in nvultra. you’re probably testing it. if there is no consensus there is not much one can do. the nvultra way makes more sense, though, because the link stays the same. could suggest it to obsidian as well and change both
