[help-texinfo] glossary tips?

I'm working on this document:

http://www.delorie.com/pcb/docs/gs/

(texi, html, info, pdf all there)

I've done the "Terminology" section, which is like a glossary, but
there are some things I want to do with it that aren't obvious from
the texinfo manual.  Specifically:

1. I want the terms to show up in the table of contents.  Why?
   Because acroread and xpdf offer expanding TOCs, and being able to
   click on the term you're interested in right from the TOC would be
   beneficial.

2. I want to be able to link to a term's definition from other places
   in the document, much like sites like Wikipedia do - a use of a
   word is a link but not otherwise decorated, that links to the
   definition of that word.

I'm currently using "@table @dfn" which is both easy to write and
looks good in all of html/info/pdf.

Suggestions?
