I really like the new internal links.   One thing I'm still missing from 
emacs-planner is the ability to display the link with the link 
destination replaced with descriptive text.

Org-mode now does this when you type [[link text][description]] and then 
export; I'd like it if org-mode did this in the normal view too.  In 
other words, if you type [[link text][description]], and then move the 
cursor off the link, you would only see "description" in your emacs 
buffer (probably in the same face used for text matched by radio links).

  This does work for the exporter, but not for the normal display.  I'll 
  take a look to see if I can find out ow to do that.  Sounds 
  interesting.

      Yes, is is an obvious generalization.  In fact, you can already write 
      something like
      
         [[http://www.google.com][Google Search]]
      
      and the exporter will do the right thing.  So yes, If hideable links 
      are implemented for internal links, this will automatically also work 
      for external links.
