Yeah, I’m not sure if it is, but I did call it to at least Polina’s attention here:
Thanks for the encouraging response! I want to just say one other thing, since my feelings about highlights are a bit different than @B_Sp . I personally do sometimes run into “not enough context”, but also run into the opposite: more context than I need, the backlink quote takes up more space than necessary.
I think regardless of what you do you’ll be “guessing” how much context to include. So when you get back to looking closely at this and how to improve it, just keep in mind what I mentioned…
B_Sp:
Show a snippet of the reference with a “more…” to expand. This is a bit more context than the first point above.
This is, I think, what I mean when I talk about Discourse-like expandable references. Not sure how this differs in your thinking from your first point above:
B_Sp:
Toggle References, for example at the level of the referring entity, so you don’t have to see the entire referred text (this is what you are talking about, right?);
