I cannot reproduce any of these problems.

Please open the sample document found in
<dita_addon_install_dir>/css_src/tests/other/badhrefs.dita
(attached screen shot) and check by yourself that everything works as
expected.

Please note that:

* All this cannot work if your document is structurally invalid (*red*
icon at the bottom/left of the window).

* XXE cannot check cross-references across several related files. It
just works on a single file at a time.

* If you want to go to the target of a conref found in a file other than
the one being edited, do not use the "Go to" commands (which only work
within the file being edited), use the "Edit referenced topic" button
found at the very right of the tool bar.
