    Well, it does, but if the anchor length exceeds the column width we
    define, it won't look good.  

Tough.  Anchor names should be short.  I suggest column 30 should be fine.
(It's a much worse problem in indexes, even going to col 40 as we do.)

    Why don't we use '.' in captions instead
    of ':'?  Seems cleaner to me.

We have to pick a convention.  I picked : because that felt like what
was used in the majority of technical articles/books I've read.  I don't
see any overwhelming argument either way.  So let's just leave it, ok?
