Hi!
When exporting to LaTeX, links are exported using \href. These are
completely invisible if the document is printed out. I consider this a
problem.
I think a good solution is to add a footnote with the link, in addition
to the \href. I've added a patch with this (tiny) change.

Subject: [PATCH] Add footnote when adding a link in ox-latex
Links in LaTeX-documents are also added in verbatim as a footnote, so it
is visible on paper.

Hej Lars,
Thanks for your patch.

It's easy enough to fix in latex. Here's a not quite trivial solution
I've used for letters.
\documentclass{scrartcl}
\usepackage{url}
\usepackage{hyperref}
\usepackage[para,flushmargin]{footmisc}
\makeatletter
\Urlmuskip = 0mu plus 1mu
\renewcommand\@makefntext[1]{%
\hspace*{-2em}
\parindent 0em
\noindent
\hb@xt@ 2.65em{\hss % There's the option of putting \hss before
\bfseries{\@thefnmark}. }% or after \@thefnmark, aligning the footnote
#1}% marks to the right or to the left, respectively
\addtokomafont{footnotelabel}{\bfseries}
\def\myurl#1{\setbox0\vbox{\hsize.5\maxdimen
\url{#1}\par
\setbox0\lastbox
\global\setbox1\hbox{\unhbox0\unskip\unskip\unpenalty}}\unhbox1}
\let\ohref\href
\newcommand\fnurl[2]{\ohref{#2}{#1}\footnote{\myurl{#2}}}
\renewcommand{\href}[2]{\fnurl{#2}{#1}}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
foo \href{http://orgmode.org}{bar}
\end{document}

We shouldn't hardcode this behavior.

Indeed we should not! I use LaTeX (beamer) to create slides which have
links I can click on during lectures. I would hate having footnotes for
all of these...
However, I can see the validity of Lars's use case so it would be nice
to have an option for this. My approach is to put the link in a
footnote directly and not in the text if it's a document I intend to
print...
