Understood. Arguably this comes under the general cleanup heading, 
rather than needing to be fixed now.

My point is that either we admit to the possibility of links and set 
everything up appropriately, or we specify that links will never happen 
in these places, so we don't need to handle them at all.

I still think we're inconsistent in that the overview summary and method 
summary tables do have links, in that they are sensitive to the mouse, 
and the cursor changes when you mouse over them, which is different to 
the behavior in these files you're changing. This is just one of the 
reasons whey it would help to have something more of a spec and demo 
docs that shows the different behavior in the different contexts.
