Should an anchor be invalid if it has no name?

the UFO3 spec says "this attribute is optional":

Right. I was thinking about implied anchors. Should have pointed to this instead:

I don't think it should be invalid, and therefore removed, if it has no name. A designer could be using an unnamed anchor/point as a guide or alignment point or something like that.

OK. I've added a couple new tests for implied anchors 5368b6c
