I know perfectly well that this is a Wikisource, and I am talking to you and
making these recommendations as one of the more experienced editors in the
Wikisources, and why I purposefully expressed the opinion that I did.

I dispute your statement about links.  English Wikisource clearly already does
this.  User of a standard header within each namespace that provides all the
relevant directional linking.  We are completely able to manage such linking
across the namespace.

Work in main namespace <-> Author in Author namespace 
 <-> Thematic page in Portal namespace
 <-> if within a published work, then linked to next component within same work
