Support link navigation via program in addition to mouse clicks

Description
Currently, I can mouse point and click to follow links within a PDF document.
I would like to write some Emacs code so when I am at symbol FOO in my Emacs session I can navigate an evince session to link FOO that already exists in the PDF document.
(This is similar in concept to Emacs TAGS and typing M-. or to using browse-url.)
I corresponded with Jose Aliste who suggested adding a GotoLink method to the/org/gnome/evince/Window DBUS interface and said I should file a bugzilla ticket here.
(And for anybody reading this, he also says to see the synctex plugin in the gedit-plugins module for how to control evince using DBUS and python.)
