Thank you for the suggestion. I'm already doing something similar:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(let ((link (org-store-link nil))
(name (org-element-property :raw-value (org-element-at-point))))
...)
#+end_src
For some reason I was under the impression that org-element might be
overkill for this, but it works well.
Thanks again,
Alan
