Bobs suggested xsl looks good, though he doesn't address the issue of
getting the paragraph number into the reference.  And also generating
fo only works for FOP not dblatex.  Dblatex xsl generates tex which is
then cleaned up IIUC with Python code (basically mystery magic unless
you read the code) and passed to the latex chain.

(un?)fortunately I'm latexophobic so I can't comment on any of these
suggestions.

Having spent many years wrestling with aerospace specs and regulations
I understand your problem.

Stop Press - I have just (re)discovered asciidoc counters.

see attached asciidoc source, local docbook45.conf and the resulting
pdf and xhtml
