Huh.  This wasn't at all what I was thinking but it may be a much better
way than I'd htought of.

A link seems like it would be a great solution, especially if I could
figure out how to get the :follow function to open an individual ~src~
path. Would you use "looking-at" to get the right candidate, or can you
think of a way to get completion candidates for a function that opens the
file? I'm looking at your eamples in
https://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2016/11/04/New-link-features-in-org-9
but can't quite follow the code.

Thank so mjch for this really interesting solution.
