Hi Kevin --

With respect to the specific issue you mention:

This seems to be a weakness in the tagged sample; it does not contain the
ID/IDREF information needed to make those into live links. (While it would be
possible to base the links on analysis of the element content this would
assume that all publishers used exactly the same naming/numbering scheme,
which would lead to creation of a very fragile stylesheet.) So, we will
improve the tagged sample.

Thank you for pointing this out.
