Thanks for the info.

What does this mean? Such a search is _not_ possible in an ODT file!

Reference and source are typically far away from each other; this is the whole
purpose of a reference. If a reference is broken because the user deleted the
target, only the user himself is in a position to fix the resulting error; and
he _will_ want to fix it, no matter how far away the reference is.
