Today we support in-line links. It ought to be possible to support indirect links.

For example, iThoughts supports them - and seems to generate them when you wish it wouldn't.

Inline links look like:

[Link Text](Link URL)

Indirect links look like:

The [first link][indirect-reference] in one sentence.

[indirect-reference]: https://example.com/link-to-page

These appear to be called Reference Links, as opposed to Inline Links. These are the terms that would be used in the User Guide - if this gets implemented.

Based on starting to work on this, I'm wondering if an optional slide that lists external links might be handy. Probably a different Issue, though.
