You can use bracketed spans
<https://pandoc.org/MANUAL.html#extension-bracketed_spans> to do this
manually, as in:

[Term 1]{#term-1}
...
Reference to [Term 1](#term-1).

We use an *auto-identifiers.lua* filter that I could probably add to
pandoc-ext <https://github.com/pandoc-ext>. This will auto-derive the
identifiers from the span content. This allows you to write this:

[Term 1]{}
...
Reference to [Term 1]().

or this (the t: is used as a prefix):

[Term 1]{#t:}
...
Reference to [Term 1](#t:).

The latter example generates this HTML.

<dt><span id="t:term-1">Term 1</span></dt>
...
<p>Reference to <a href="#t:term-1">Term 1</a>.</p>
