It'd be nice to know why we're doing this and what the benefit is.

Maybe if you know more about ReSt, it's obvious that using :doc:`foo`
is wrong and produces the wrong output or something. But I don't
know.

I do think the pathname in the new text is easier for plain-text
readers to follow.

(What's the correct spelling of "ReSt", BTW? The cover letter has
"ReST", this patch has "ReSt", wikipedia says "RST, ReST, or reST".)

But anyway,
