I use a home-brewed solution.  If your requirements are modest there's
also ox-bibtex.el in addition to John's package (which I haven't tried).

In the future there may be a "official" solution.

For LaTeX you can find solution on this list.  I would not know how to do
it in "plain" HTML.  That would be the first step to a solution.

Can't you just do:

     #+NAME: fig
     #+CAPTION: caption
     [[file:fig.png]]

     See figure [[fig]]

ox stands for org export.  A number of backends including LaTeX and html
are supported.  It's documented in the manual.

Patches are welcome, but you should aim to target as all relevant
backends.  For your own solution you can use filters or you can ox-publish
and change the functions that you desire to change.

Hope it helps,
Rasmus
