feature request: 2 "display text" options in Cross

I write complicated reference books, and often use Cross-reference with large numbers of bookmarks. I often need to display both the "bookmarked text" and associated but variable number such as a page or item number - hundreds and potentially thousands of times in a single document.

At the moment, doing this involves quite a number of keystrokes and mouse actions for each item. It would be helpful if, once the Cross-reference dialog opens, two (or more) "display text" options could be selected simultaneously, perhaps as checkboxes, producing two variables at the same time rather than one for the same cross-referenced piece of text.

Thanks for taking the time to think about this. Also, please let me know if this is not the right place to be submitting feature requests.
