I understand that there's some discussion behind the curtains regarding the markdown support, but the cross-reference-hyperlink patch is also in the same patch series. It doesn't change any text in the docbook unless there's really a cross-reference link to it. Different from the markdown support (when people start to use markdown to write docs it will be hard to go back), the cross-link stuff doesn't require/create any change to current documentation, it is pretty safe to use. Would you mind to share your plans about this?
