This is yet another obscure part of Org, IMO. I really think we need to normalize link customization, for an improved user experience. > Would you consider expanding org-add-link-type like this to set those in > the special variable? I don't like much `org-add-link-type' because, it inherently only operates on additional link types, so it is not sufficient to handle all customization needs. I'd rather have a single way to control link behaviour. I think we could rename `org-link-display-parameters' into `org-link-type-parameters' and control links from that location. More explicitly, the value for a given link type (string) could be a plist with the following properties - :follow - :export - :face - :display - :completion - :echo The value would contain every link type, including internal ones. Its value would probably be daunting at first (compared, e.g., with a boolean) but it would give full control over links. WDYT? Regards, -- Nicolas Goaziou
