First off, thanks so much for Sphinx.  You can add MapServer 
<http://mapserver.osgeo.org 
 > to the list of projects using Sphinx for its documentation.  We  
have over 200 files of docs that eventually ends up being over 600  
pages of PDF when generated by LaTeX.  Sphinx and reStructuredText are  
a fantastic way to manage it all.

One thing that is challenging to manage with so much documentation is  
the referencing.  We're using :ref: with labels 
<http://sphinx.pocoo.org/markup/inline.html#cross-referencing-arbitrary-locations
 
 > all over the place.  When writers write docs, one thing they need  
to be able to do to make their documents stronger is add lots of  
linking using the :ref:'s, but you have to know what the reference  
names are before you can call them.  It would be very handy to collect  
all of the :ref: names and their titles into a reStructuredText table  
that could be included in the documentation somewhere so authors have  
a primer when writing/editing their docs.

Is this currently possible without too much trouble?  Would I need to  
write an custom extension/builder to do it?  Are there any examples to  
follow?

Thanks for any pointers, and Sphinx kicks ass.

Howard
