To explain more simply, I've put \pagereference[sample] somewhere in a 
document. Intead of just printing the page number that appeared with 
\at{page}[sample], I'd like to print the section or subsection title of where 
that appeared.

 I've set a \pagereference in a chapter, and want to print its chapter title 
and page number, ex.

"You can find more information in "Fish" on p. 1" (where "Fish" is the title of 
the chapter or section).
I've tried looking all through the wiki, thinking this was a basic feature, but 
couldn't get anything to work. I even tried my own custom macros, see below, 
but strangely, it won't give me the correct title, it tells me the title of the 
current chapter, instead of the title in which the reference was placed:


\define[1]\dropref{%    \textreference[#1]{\expanded{\currentstructuretitle}}
}


\starttext

\startchapter[title=Fish]

\dropref{hello}

\input knuth

\stopchapter

\startchapter[title=Whales]

You can more information at \at{page}[hello] in \at{chapter}[hello] or 
\about[hello].

\stopchapter

\stoptext
Strangely both at commands give the correct information, but \about doesn't.

How do I place a reference somewhere in a text, then later tell which chapter 
title and page number that reference appeared in?
