For the references I would take latex as paragon:
define references once in one block for the whole document and refer to 
them as often as you want from anywhere in the document.

For this reason I dont like "Just pick up all references in all source 
files?"

Kent Tenny's global-files-idea pleases. But I think it is not good to 
hardcode the paths to the files containing global references and global 
subsitutions. I imagine following options for the conf.py:
global_substitutions_file=foo.rst
global_references_file=bar.rst
