The function `org-refile-get-targets' is the standard way of producing a
list of all possible headings -- ostensibly to refile to, but you can do
anything you want with them.

If you want to restrict this to Org headings that already have ids
(though I'm not sure why you would), you can use the org-id-locations
hashtable.

I still think you'd have to use one of the above to pick a heading, then
go to the heading in a `save-excursion', call `org-store-link', then
back to your original location, and call `org-insert-link'. I don't
think there's any cleaner way of doing that...
