Probably not a nice idea, for one it doesn't produce good IDs. Secondly, this is only fixing a bug in ninja's own docs generation. For our own docs, I think it is preferable to have the unstable IDs to push us to making actually decent IDs.

12:29 gchristensen: do you still agree with #55421 (comment), considering it's been over a year and 2 of the 20 broken packages on r13y.com are Nix and the Nix manual?
12:29 *NixOS manual
12:30 well...yes, because the IDs are really bad. I'd rather a build-time test that looks for bad IDs and fails
12:30 following the principle of https://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI
