ISTM that the linking changes you propose are stretching the semantics
of DocBook. If you want to link, why not just use <link>. By using
<xref> plus endterm you're doing the same thing indirectly and you rely
on the remote endterm having a sensible grammatical structure that fits
into the local sentence.
