I concur! The abstract of the draft is pretty sparse regarding the motivation for such an extension.

Such a "link" would be a relation between certs. Without specifying the relation how can you tell the characteristics of such relation (e.g. R being transitive)?
=> I doubt that a simple reference will do for real-world problems.
