You're wrong, it _does_ have all the information it needs, in the form of the
anchor's position in the DOM.  Indeed, I've managed to fix it by adding one
line to the JS code:

    for (var i = 0; i < document.anchors.length; i++)
    {
        var a = document.anchors[i];
        var text = a.name;
        if (a.parentNode.parentNode.parentNode.tagName == "DD") continue;
        if (hash[text] > 0) continue;
        hash[text] = 1;
        values[n++] = a.name
    }

While it would be nice to have a hierarchical list of links, it's distinct from
the reporter's request, and so warrants a separate RFE.  From a DMD point of
view, it's a matter of the Ddoc macro system providing access to the full
hierarchical name of the symbol.
