Thanks for bringing up this use case, it hadn't occurred to me before. I guess this use case is relatively new, since prior to Org 9.3 ":results graphics" would insert a link. But, I can see why this functionality would be useful, and if people have come to use it, we should try not to break back-compatibility, or at least provide an alternate mechanism to support it. I do think that inserting a link for graphics is probably the more common use case, and should be easier by default. But clearly, the situation is not quite as simple as I had originally thought. Best, Jack
