The only slight issue I see with this idea is that I have to update lots of
links in the document, whenever something changes in a reference,
for example some new version of a W3C working draft comes out. Currently,
only the entry in the reference list has to be updated.

But I could live with this (speaking as an editor), because I can defer
checking and updating all these links just before next publication of 
my working draft (and then it's just a find/replace-allS in my editor). 
I am having a list of "last actions before publications" anyway.
 
And yes, I regard reader convenience higher than editor burden in this case.

I am willing to go with (almost) any approach the WG will settle on. :)
