There are links to special pages in other pages. There is no reason to hide those links from the eye of the user. Thus the "what links here" link in the "toolsbox" on each special page can, and should, be available as well as already everywhere else.
See some comments in bug 16162 ... like bug 16162#c2 about registering pagelinks in negative namespaces.
