--- Comment #3 from Ulrich Windl <Ulrich.Windl at rz.uni-regensburg.de> ---
The "TeX approach" would probably be like this:
Put all occurrences of ${referencetext} in a queue (a text file for TeX
actually), together with the page number. Then for every page pick the first
occurrence as the first occurrence, and the last occurrence as the last
ocurrence.

I mean if they could do it in 16-bit MS-DOS 28 years ago, it seems ridiculous
to say it's not possible with today's bloated software.

Regarding comment #2:
It's not about having the first letter printed in bold (TeX can do that, too);
it's about having a header or a footer saying "A-C" (e.g. for your example
page). Also think on when creating PDFs: Once could quickly navigate from the
bookmark (e.g. named "A-C") to the page you are looking for.
