seems like you'd rather just have refer_to and some way to specify whether it returns "now" cards, "future" cards, virtual cards, or some combination.

Big question is, what does this WQL return?  What are you seeing in the interface?  if it just needs to return a cardname, then we might be able to make this much simpler by curtailing the query at the reference stage.

refer_to just returns cards, right? referred_to_by can return existing and/or non-existent cards or both; when might anything return virtual cards?

I imagine returning any non-existent cards the same as with "append" / "prepend", as i've proposed above.
