You probably meant heading elements, because "header tag" is something 
different. Do you have any references those issues reports? Because in 
html5 the fragment identifiers are the only correct way to have internal 
document bookmarks [1] [2]. If some browsers do not navigate to fragment 
identifiers except for <a> element there must be bugs reported that  
which will be fixed soon.
The html5 specification is very specific about navigating to the 
fragment identifier [3]. So, there should no be difference between 
navigating to "<a id=" or to any other element having id attribute. If 
you just need an extra vertical space above header you could use css 
style or <p>, but usage of <a> as an upper margin seems odd since it is 
a special tag.
