[xml-h] backlinking code, sort of

Well, as a young-ish old hypertext guy... :-)

That's a nice hack, but there are a couple of limitations:

1. It assumes that the system has access to the web and is known to Google.
Not much use in private hypertext systems (safety critical or security
sensitive docs for example).

2. It doesn't really give you a "real" bidirectional link, more of a
"shotgun" back link, which may not be what you want (depends on the scenario
of course).

Still, neat idea that I'm sure will come in useful for a lot of people!
