A great suggestion. I wasn't aware of the feature, and renaming safety
is a great benefit while also solving my space problem.

I don't suppose there's a trick to automatically update descriptions
for links whose target has been renamed?

When exploring this, I found the function org-id-store-link. This
seemed like what I wanted - it creates a custom ID if one doesn't
exist, but it doesn't actually store a link (or at least, it wasn't
available when I then ran org-insert-link). The docstring is pretty
light, but it seems like this might be a bug. Is this the expected
behavior?

Thanks for the pointer in any case.

Regards,
Jake
