(Sorry, I'm barely able to keep up with email ATM due to outside
constraints, so I'm not sure this has already been addressed.)

I keep trying to write the links this way and get gently reminded that
there's a better idiom, one that gets rid of this dangling "here" word.
Yeah, ok, here's a cut-and-paste from Simon:

  A link which says "here" is generally a bad idea, they will not really
  make sense in a printed version..

  I would suggest:

          in <xref linkend="dads-noinstall">.</para>

e.g. the name associated with that reference will be picked up and used.
It will also be properly highlighted in the web-based version.

(You have 3 instances of this in the above IIRC.)

Otherwise I think it looks good.
