Not sure. Even a fix to org-insert-link would not solve the problem with
unexpected export if the link is typed in manually. So, I'd rather keep
both the reports for the time being.
Or someone may go through all the related bugs and create a single giant
discussion to avoid scattering things around. In my notes, I have at
least 6 discussions related to edge cases of Org markup.

I think it is already kind of official. At least, we directly suggest
using zero width spaces in
https://orgmode.org/manual/Escape-Character.html#Escape-Character
The other thing is that ox.el does not do anything about zero width
spaces.

I do not like this idea. It is fine when inserting a link into existing
emphasis, but what if an emphasis is applied around link later? We would
also need to update org-emphasize and still have an issue because many
users simply type the emphasis markers manually.

We already escape '\' ,'[', and ']' in links. Zero width spaces will not
make things much different. Of course, org-link-escape and
org-link-unescape will need to be updated.
Note that even copying Urls directly can be worked around using
filter-buffer-substring-function.
Best,
Ihor
