So I've been trying to figure out what this refers to.  Is this the
cross-reference links within the document?  When I did my sphinx hack it
used a technique that, shall we say, strongly resembles what Jani's
patches did.  One difference is that Sphinx has the concept of
"functions" built into it, so I use function references for those.

If you mean links to the wider world, I'm not sure I see that in Jani's
patches.  It's going to be easily managed in whatever markup language we
use, though.
