I can't recall which reader app I used, but I've seen this done before in ages past.
No AI, so no big concept of inferred identities, but if someone's referenced by name you could long-tap the name, and get a list of all previous references in the text. Super useful for referencing secondary characters in super-long epics like The Wheel of Time.

- mschulkind 3y agoSome kindle books have the X-ray feature that does exactly this.

- skydhash 3y agoSome printed books has that. It’s called the dramatis personae. Everyone not listed in it is not important. So not even tech is needed for that.
