Two thoughts:
1. Assuming my suggestion for dedicated links to be typeset as page number
references, one partly achieve this by multiple links.
e.g.
------------------------------------------------
See Section [[*Tropical Storms]], page [[tropstorms]].
* Tropical Storms
Bla bla bla...
<<tropstorms>> Bla bla bla..
--------------------------------------------------
2. Maybe, instead of trying to make simple cross-reference links do
everything for everyone, it would be better to think in terms of
creating several link types?
e.g. something like
See Section [[*Tropical Storms]], [[textref:*Tropical Storms]],
[[pageref:tropstorms]].
Yours,
