If instead of the template, there was a link to a list, or a link to a category, then "whatlinkshere" would be much cleaner and could actually be checked carefully to see if all the links are being used correctly. Ditto for listing the outgoing links. If links from transcluded templates could be semantically distinguished from links from the actual articles, that would be great.
You can sort of do this with whatlinkshere as it is today, I think:

WLH currently has three buttons at the top - to show/hide "transclusions", "links" and "redirects".
Redirects works, transclusions doesn't seem to (at least not for me just now). If this can be fixed, it presumably would give us exactly what you're looking for...
