Since we're not the only ones having this sort of problem, I wonder if
we can convince the Sphinx developers to do something about it.  We
would probably have a better chance of doing this if we had a good
idea of how we would like references to work in an ideal world.

(A quick look at Sphinx' trac didn't yield any relevant tickets.  I'll
try to have a look at their mailing list as well to see if anything
was brought up.)
