Description

First of all, fantastic package.

Second, I wanted to ask if there is a solution for preserving links to jump between slides in a xaringan presentation when rendering to PDF. My dirty workaround at the moment is to export to pdf, and then insert the links myself using Latex, which is unfortunately time-consuming.

Is this possible, and could it be in the pipeline for future releases?

Determine whether within-document links can be preserved in the generated PDF, then verify the result with a presentation containing links between slides.
