Here's how I've implemented this in my Web logging system [1]:
The poster has to explicitly include permalink attributes in the form:
id="section-<?stamp?>"
...to create the permalinks to the part of the post. (The script
automatically expands <?stamp?> on output to be the stamp of the blog
post in question.) (note the alphabetic section name comes before the
numeric stamp, since IDs can't start with numbers in HTML.)
Then, to give users some indication of what the permalink for a section
is, I've been adding title attributes:
title="permalink to this section: #section-<?stamp?>"
Now I'll grant you, that isn't very good UI (You can't just copy and
paste the link). Is there a better way?
