For now... but that will probably change when we write the spec. See proposed changes here:

I might not have been clear enough in my example, I meant to indicate the first block was a MDITA file and the conref was present in another standard DITA file.

The problem with non-normative references like the LwDITA committee note and even my book on LwDITA (which, by the way, mentions you!) is that things are subject to change. The ID and class identifier in headings was a feature of MDITA originally, but then it was abandoned, and now it is back in. Complicated... but that's why we are now working on the spec and use input like yours to create normative references.

Let's see: As proposed, content in an MDITA topic can be conref-ed from an XDITA, HDITA, MDITA, or DITA topic. The syntax, as of right now, should look like this: --- id: topicofmine --- # My topic This is a short description-like paragraph. <p id="share">I want to share this with the world.</p> -- The second "paragraph" has to be an HDITA (the format of LwDITA based on HTML5) snippet, and it can be called from another topic in any other LwDITA authoring format or DITA. We are currently evaluating an alternative Markdown-based mapping for conrefs that uses a hyperlink-like syntax and does not need an HTML5 snippet inside the MDITA topic. Let me know if you need more information.

I've got a quick MDITA question. I'm trying to figure out conref'ing between Markdown and DITA, is the intention to support this in the LwDITA spec? If yes, is the idea that the files stay as Markdown and the processor supports conrefing to content inside the Markdown content?
