I am not sure it really fits the model of the exporters that are in org,
since it is basically just a pre-processing hook. I don't think there are
any exporters in org that rely on that, e.g. you can't just C-c C-e choose
a backend and export with a pre-processing hook. It doesn't make sense to
make a command that does that either I think, since you might want to use
other pre-processing hooks too, e.g. I have one called natmove (inspired by
the latex package) that moves superscript citations to the right hand side
of punctuation, and in ox-ipynb I use pre-processing functions for removing
solutions, and things like that. So some exports might use all three, and
others only two, some just one, and others none. One solution for that is
file-local variables I guess.

It also is (IMO) a part of org-ref since it uses the links that are defined
in org-ref. I see it as more an extension of org-mode than something that
needs to be in the core. For simple cross-references the built in internal
links are adequate I think.

Anyway, it should be tested for a while to see if it is the right way to do
this. Maybe there are better ideas for it.
