Frank,
I suspect these proposals are a good idea, but as yet I'm unclear about 
what we gain by changing the way to use hyperlinks.

I'd really like to revisit your suggestions as we move into the next 
release, but as we are getting close to this release, and as translators 
are working like mad translating the English docs, we should be doing 
our best to keep the English docs as static as possible, and only change 
the English docs if we find something wrong.
