I have a document with a table of forward references.
It looks like this now:

+------------------------+----------------------------+---------+
| Trigger pledge-        | /pledge-enrollment-request | Section |
| enrollment-request     |                            | 5.5.1   |
| Returns PER            |                            |         |

obviously, maintaining the literal "5.5.1" is a pain.
Trying to obvious to insert a reference:

Operations and their corresponding URIs:
+------------------------+----------------------------+---------+
| Operation              |Operation path              | Details |
+========================+============================+=========+
| Trigger pledge-voucher-| /pledge-voucher-request    | {{exchanges_uc2_1}} |
| request creation       |                            |         |
| Returns PVR            |                            |         |
+------------------------+----------------------------+---------+

doesn't work (not really surprising).
Is there some other way I could make this easier to manage?
