Back links are computed at the end of the need post-processing, after
needextend
have been applied.Back links should always be in-sync with forward links, therefore it doesn't make sense to modify back links in this way.
Thankfully, the current availability of back link options in
needextend
directives is not documented, and so are unlikely to have been actually used.
