Ah I understand. Done. Also updated the changelog commit message to
reflect the new documentation.

I understand now. Fixed in this version. Thanks for clarifying.

Yes, I see what you mean. I suppose that without a user option or
similar to control this behaviour, it will always be a trade-off. I
think the behaviour I have written makes the most sense, and as you
say, a solution to completely resolve it might be unwieldy. If someone
else really wants different behaviour I suppose they can submit a
patch.

> You do not check that `org-link-make-description-function' is not nil.

This is a good point. I've substituted
`org-link-make-description-function' for `t', which has exactly the
effect of only running that clause if
`org-link-make-description-function' is not nil. This also means that
in the case where `:insert-description' *and*
`org-link-make-description-function' are both nil then the user won't
get a 2-second error message. Since this configuration is the default
state which ships with org, an error message seems rather odd, so this
is probably a good result!

This also means that if we reach that clause and
`org-link-make-description-function' *is* nil, then the whole `cond'
just returns nil, and so the link inserted with no default
description, which makes sense to me.

> You might even add a test for such configuration (no

Good idea. Done in the latest version.

Thanks,

Hugo

Subject: [PATCH] ol.el: add description format parameter to
 org-link-parameters

* ol.el (org-link-parameters): Add parameter `:insert-description', a
string or a function.
* (org-insert-link): If no description is provided (pre-existing or as
an argument), next option is to use the `:insert-description' (if
non-nil) parameter to generate one.
* (org-link-make-description-function): Add documentation to describe
behaviour of nil return value, like that of `:insert-description'.

Default descriptions are predictable within a link type, but because
link types are quite diverse, are NOT predictable across many types.
A type-parameter is thus a good place to store information on the
default description.
