\goto{some long text}[...]

here context will:

-  break the text in 3 parts (thereby ensuring that the text can cross lines)
-  turn them into hyperlinks (sharing objects when needed)
-  make sure that there is something to click (actually, this will probably 
go unnoticed, but it's the reason why hyperlinks have consistent clickable 
areas; this is not handled by pdftex at all)
-  a couple of more things -)

there are page and named dest and i use chained ones as well (go there, do 
this, and then that). teh view spec is not supported in all; also, in order 
to make a robust solution, i need to fool around with positional info, so 
that's on the todo list

[in the mathml presentation on the site you can see some experimental 
viewport hackery, this presentation is in fact one big page]
