In my reading of Michel's document, refnames are labels used to
connect "reference-style" links and footnotes to their definition.
That's different from link _text_. You can have

[[hi]](/url)

but you cannot have

[Hi!][[hi]]

[[hi]]: http://hi.com

I am assuming that there will be a different type to deal with link text.
