True, they do. Yet, this is something completely unrelated.
With auto wiki links I can go from page a to pages b, c or d even if they don’t mention page a. Moreover, I can set up aliases for pages b, c and d so that I can have as many names as I can possibly conceive serving as links towards them.

I mentioned it in my previous post. Only DEVONthink and VoodooPad have this feature. So what I was saying is that I don’t see it popping up in new places.
