I think that <REFERENCE>(symbol-name\TEXT) and <REFERENCE>(symbol-name\FULL) should be modified so that the chapter/header name or caption in final output is distinguished from "normal" text. I don't know if this is best done by delimiting with commas, enclosing in quotes, or appearing in italics or bold; I just think that whatever it is should be automatic. Rose

whatever we did automatically we would be asked to undo, almost
immediately. This is one of those areas in which by doing nothing
we allow people to use local conventions or customs.

Hmmm. I was thinking that there was some kind of universal convention
that would apply, I just didn't know what it was; you know, something from
the Chicago Handbook or ???
You could make it automatic for some convention, then tell how to modify it
in the System Admin Guide. How many possibilities can there be? (I'm not
being cute, lest that's how it's coming across.)
Dare I suggest you allow yet another argument to \TEXT and \FULL, whereby
people could specify enclosing characters (' or "), or bold or italics?
I should note that I have been able to italicize by enclosing <reference> in
<emphasis> (or maybe I embedded it; anyway it works).
