Keeping fully qualified names around

[Vinay Sajip]

I'd like to keep fully-qualified names around and incorporate them into generated HTML. For example, given the markup

:meth:`~module.class.method`

this generates the HTML

<code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre">method()</span></code>

but I'd like to (for example) generate something like

<code class="xref py py-meth docutils literal"><span class="pre" data-fullname="module.class.method">gen_key_input()</span></code>

How would I go about doing this? If is this too low-level for this group, someone please tell me and I can perhaps ask on sphinx-dev.

Thanks and regards,

Vinay Sajip

Asking on sphinx-dev or filing an issue against the source repo might be a good idea. :)
