BTW: lets drop this C&P 'only' block here. Subprojects are only where a
Documentation/*/conf.py exists. The build does not have sub-sub-projects
at Documentation/*/*/conf.py level.

Same here, lets drop the 'only' block.

I really appreciate your hyper-ref markup using :doc:`Foo <foo>` and `Bar`_
it is very clear when reading the raw text files in the source tree. I think
this has its value, but it also has its drawbacks when chapters are renamed
or moved from one file to another. Thats, why I recommend using explicitly
anchors / may be the maintainer Jon can give us his assessment. What I mean::

.. _foo:

Foo
===

lorem see :ref:`bar`

.. _bar:

Bar
===

ipsum see :ref:`foo`

With explicitly anchors:

- there is no need to track when a chapter is renamed
- or moved to another file,
- same to renaming files
- with intersphinx [1] other projects can link to such anchors

Even if you use :ref: or :doc: both are line-break-safe ...

+The other strategy, referred to as the :doc:`working-state power
+management <working-state>`, ...

.. should work.

Thanks!
