Yeah, I am *absolutely* not suggesting this for this series.
I did start taking a look at Sphinx's default_role. As an exercise for
the Python cleanup, I looked at what would happen if I set our default
role to "Any" to be able to cross-reference using `backticks`.
I used this to test my docstring consistency for the QAPI module
cleanup. It involved me converting a few usages of single backticks in
./docs proper to double-backticks, but it wasn't too bad.
(See the "DO-NOT-MERGE" commits on my part1 V3.)
I'll look into how we *add* reference targets; that part I still have no
clue on. but adding a qmp reference scope would be *delightful*.
