List of tables, list of figures

jkropf
Hi,

unfortunately, this feature is still missing in asciidoc, so I'm writing an extension using the asciidoctorj API to provide this support.
So far I can parse the document tree and create the lists with figure and table references / captions.
But, when generating a pdf, I would like to add the page numbers as references to the elements.
Since asciidoctorj does not support PDF in postprocessing I look for other options.
Of course, the page numbers can't be known at the stage when the extension comes in, but is there something like a placeholder I can use with is then replaced with the page number of the reference when generating the PDF?
How is the TOC generated?

Kind regards,
Johannes
