This is all I have for now. Clearly there are more use cases:
* Files should be movable. That is, cut and paste products.html to a different folder, and maintain the links.
* Non-rich editing of the HTML should be supported. Thus, the link objects need a reasonable and unique identifier. For example, the actual products.html file may contain something like "Also see <a href='${links\["My Company's Products"\].url}'>our products page</a>."
* Further, other properties such as Title should be accessible: "Also see <a href='${links\["Products"\].url}'>${links\["Products"\].title}</a>."
* And use cases involving embedding of links into structured content via XForms.
