nice. I have similar code in org-ref  for a ref links to labels, but it
doesn't have #+name in it yet, but it does do table names. You might find
the function org-label-store-link (
https://github.com/jkitchin/jmax/blob/master/org-ref.org#label)
interesting, so you can use C-c l and C-c C-l to put your links in. I think
you could do something like that with #+name.
