I’d like to chime in – if someone intends to write an academic or scientific
text and to publish it (which implies the text needs to be in PDF format), this
broken feature will prevent that he/she can use LibreOffice at all. And my
guess would be that this is a lot of people. So this isn’t a minor problem. 

This problem was first reported almost 10 years ago. So, please change
“Importance” in the bug description at least to “normal”, and please somebody
take care of the fix. 

All that has to be done is to create sort of an “internal links” or bookmarks
in the exported PDF 

By the way, in the ODT format the “jump” works perfectly for endnotes (i.e. a
click on the endnote marker in the text produces a jump to the endnote, a click
on the index in front of the respective endnote produces a jump back to the
marker in the text.

And note also: for footnotes, the “jump” function in the exported PDF is
actually working – even though only one-way, i.e. to the footnote on the bottom
of the page, but not back to the marker in the text, which is probably
acceptable for footnotes since one stays on the same text page; and, this is
also the way that it is implemented in the ODT file.
