If the @section/whatever is immediately preceded by an @anchor,
one can use the explicit anchor instead.  In a sense the @anchor
functions like the @missing node command, except in terms of splitting.

I assume you would disallow sub-nodes: I.e. the next @node command would
have to be followed by a sectioning comand at the same or higher level.
