I have a need for this as described here Generate a link to a page from within a table
This would be a normal use in that it is a summation or contents page to voluminous number of pages that are overwhelming for the user to have visible. Yes you can just generate a parent page with al the sub pages, but in the same way that a select list only contains one piece of information while a lookup can present multiple pieces of data, the page sub page list only gives the minimum amount of information whereas a row with a link can have supplementary information associated.
An extension to that would be the ability to generate the line in the source table and automate that page’s creation and insert the link to the column, but that seem like having the moon on a stick.
