Not thought about this before, but if you save as MIF and look for the:
<XRefSrcText `<xrefnum>: <xrefTag>: <xrefText>'>
tag, it contains the xref source text. You could use this for, say, global
edits, but it would not be much help in just locating the xref in the source
document.
A real one I've just created looks like this:
<XRef
<XRefName `Heading & Page'>
<XRefSrcText `66923: Heading1: This is a heading'>
<XRefSrcIsElem No>
<XRefSrcFile `'>
<XRefLastUpdate 1295783633 0>
<Unique 999233>
> # end of XRef
