Hello,

In an attempt at automating a part of my workflow, I found that
org-capture's %l didn't quite fit what I needed.  Normally,
org-store-link does the right thing, but for some capture tasks, I want
to custom generate the description, so %l doesn't work.  I've attached a
patch that adds %L, a version that doesn't add the link brackets.

Thanks,

Sam Flint

It looks good to me for Org 9.5.  Can you add a Changelog entry to
your patch and also patch the tests and the manual, if needed?

See <https://orgmode.org/worg/org-contribute.html#commit-messages> 
for the format of the Changelog.

Thanks,

Apologies for spamming you with multiple copies Bastien.

Certainly!  Hopefully this looks better.  I didn't see any tests for %a,
%A or %l already, and I don't have time atm to write them, otherwise I'd
have done so.

I can mark this as TINYCHANGE, if necessary, as I don't have a copyright
assignment on file, though I'm willing to do so.

Thanks,

Sam

You just need to be patient.  Either I will have some free time
at some point to help with this, either someone else will.

But the contribution is not forgotten, don't worry.
