This extension allows you to easily copy a direct link to any element (with or without id attribute) simply by right clicking on it, and selecting "Get link to XPath" from the context menu.
Generally the paths will be of the following form: https://github.com/dergachev/chrome-xpath-link#readme/article/p-3
