Is it possible to implement trackbacks from SE sites to the arXiv.org?

• Example: Here is a list of trackbacks to the arXiv preprint arXiv:0905.2658 from various blogs. My feature-request is that if a future SE post mentions an arXiv number, say, arXiv:0905.2658, then a trackback is automatically sent to the arXiv.org who then adds the SE post to the trackback list.

• Example: This SE answer mentions the arXiv preprint arXiv:0707.2895. With trackbacks to the arXiv, it would be possible to see on the corresponding trackback list that this preprint is mentioned on SE.

• More Examples: (SE question, arXiv preprint, trackback list); (SE question, arXiv preprint, trackback list).

arXiv.org is nowadays the leading archive for scientific preprints. It is used by a majority of scientists in physics, mathematics, and other sciences. See e.g. this Stat.SE post. Scientists typically upload their preprints to the arXiv.org before submitting to journals in order to get their works exposed, and to receive fast feed-back.

Several SE science sites, such as, e.g., Math.SE, Phys.SE, and a handful of other SE sister sites, would benefit enormously (not least in terms of PR value) from trackbacks to the arXiv.

In this way SE would become visible to many scientists, experts, academics and scholars, with knowledge to share, who potentially could become new high-value users for the SE science sites.

Mathoverflow.SE already has trackbacks implemented (mainly thanks to Scott Morrison).

• Examples: (SE question, arXiv preprint, trackback list); (SE question, arXiv preprint, trackback list).

Can this be widen to other SE sites as well, in particular SE science sites?
