FWIW, I completely agree. I would be happy to provide a patch for
this, but I'm not sure how to get the link's description inside
org-export-resolve-fuzzy-link. AFAICT, the `link' object passed to
this function has properties as determined by
`org-element-link-parser'. The properties listed in the docstring
don't include the description.

Could anyone provide a hint on how to get the link's description?

Regards,
Jake
