actually in mkii there is (using symbols pointing to the companion that

will do that (we used that long ago in interactive educational documents)
That would be extremely cool - I am working on two long textbooks for my
students right now, and when working with them in class,
navigating through something with more than 200 pages can be painful.
Is there any source/documentation I can look at?
in mkii it's provided by the coupling directive but as we only used it
ourselves for some projects it was never document (i think)
in mkiv it will be named couplings:
\defineenumeration
[exercise]
[way=bysection,
text=Exercise,
coupling=solution,
location=hanging]
\defineenumeration
[solution]
[text=Solution,
way=bysection,
coupling=exercise,
location=hanging]
\defineblock[exercise]
\defineblock[solution]
\hideblocks[solution]
\setupinteraction
[state=start]
\starttext
\section{Main Text}
\subsection[subsec:1]{problem section 1}
\startexercise[ex:1]
Addition\index{addition} problem: $1+1=?$ (\in{solution}[sol:1])
\stopexercise
\beginsolution[one]
\startsolution[sol:1]

keep in mind that this only works well (at least currently) for
synchronized enumerations; also, the rendering uses symbols; more
variants can be provided later (no time for that now) and the mechanism
has to be more pluggable
i will update a beta that provides this
