Why is hard linking mandatory? Couldn't this function obey to
`org-attach-method'?

According to this description, I think it could be implemented as
a function within "org-attach.el" instead of a new library.

Also, in the context of Org, an "org subtree" is simply a "subtree".
I prefer "subtree" over "orgee".
