OK, so you would put a couple of <eref>s there, with plain text that elucidates the link relationship.  (Was thinking of something closer to RFC 8288 here, but that is of course harder to format into text.)

(<eref> hasn’t been treated very well in previous versions of xml2rfc, so I tried to never use it.  Maybe it can emerge into its prime now…)

We could simply add <annotation> to <author> to solve that other problem…
