I tried to do this, and here was my result:

- after saving, the link did not show on the display page
- I refreshed the page, and it still didn't show
- I went back into edit and could see the link
- I opened a different browser, and the link did show
- after a while I realized that editing had taken me to the Book page,  
away from the Work page. If I clicked on the Work, then I could see  
the edits I had made. This is pretty confusing.

(Note to self: remember this.)

One thing that is tricky on the edit page is that after you type in  
the link and the text you need to click on "Add link" before you save  
the page. I looked at the page you had edited and I don't see the  
link, either in the Work display or in the edit display. Can you try  
again, making sure that you click the "Add link" button? And then  
check that you are looking at the Work page, not the Edition page.

Thanks, Adrian, sorry this is confusing.

As to link types -- I like the idea, but I don't have to write the  
code to "make it so" so I'll leave that to the folks who know how much  
work it might be.
