Thanks for the feedback, Jon!

I don’t understand the point of supporting more link types unless we have 
something to link to. For arrays we can link to the component type, but there’s 
no actual link target for the array of a specific type.

Regarding the regex: I agree they’re not a great thing to read and maintain. It 
might be a good idea to replace that with a small method comparing the index of 
square brackets with that of left parenthesis.
