Interpretation of the fragment identifier is performed solely by the
agent that dereferences a URI; the fragment identifier is not passed
to other systems during the process of retrieval. This means that some
intermediaries in Web architecture (such as proxies) have no
interaction with fragment identifiers and that redirection (in HTTP
[RFC2616], for example) does not account for fragments.
