Hi,

I'm discovering and studying new features every day. Today I went
for abbreviations (synonyms) and registers. I wonder if it is
possible to have both, combined. Precisely, I'm thinking of a
synonyms system that adds pagerefences (like a register) in the
listing. Can this be set up?

this is something i have been thinking about [so that one can click on a 
abbr and go to the first instance of the expansion]

maybe we should make some feature wish database

I was thinking more about an index with links to each occurence of
the unexpanded and/or expanded abbreviation, with links and
backlinks (going from the abbreviation to the list of ...). Or,
widly dreaming, different actions depending on click,
double-click, right-click (the latter giving a list of possible
actions)?

Probably a good idea.
