 as a link?

I routinely tweak the text of the target headings as I edit the document.
 For example, the section heading "Introduction to Technology Contracts"
might become, say, "Introduction:  Why Technology Contracts are Fun."

I don't want to have to manually revise the link text for the many internal
cross-reference links that exist in the document.  I'd really like to have
a way for a link to automatically retrieve the heading text during HTML
export.
