I'm not sure to understand your use case -- why do you want clickable text in
the first place (other than links)?
But, did you look at `org-add-link-type' which does allow some kind of
powerful stuff (mainly for export, but can maybe be diverted from its original
purpose)?
I guess you also are aware of the elisp and shell links you can already put in
any Org file, as clickable "buttons"?
Best regards,
Seb
