I don't think any further implementation outside the existing link
framework is required to do this. The only limitations of the current
framework are (I think) it is limited to a single line (i.e. not
multiline), and it would be difficult to have nested links.

Otherwise, you can put most things in the path, and then parse it as you
see fit. I think it would be interesting to couple this with a recursive
descent parser one day, and some DSL perhaps.

There is a prototype of this idea at
https://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2015/02/05/Extending-the-org-mode-link-syntax-with-attributes/

I wouldn't claim it is the best way to do that, or the right thing to
do.

scimax-editmarks is a step further
(https://github.com/jkitchin/scimax/blob/master/scimax-editmarks.org)
that doesn't use org-links or any org-syntax for something more like an
inline object. It mostly addresses the multiline issue, but it also
doesn't support nested objects, mostly because of my limited knowledge
of recursive parsing. I would not advocate for putting this in org
either though.

If you are interested in this kind of thing, you might find
https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/linkd.el interesting too. It leverages
an S-expression approach, which makes the parsing and nesting more
straightforward.

I know this is a little off-track of the original thread, but I agree
with Nicolas that it does not seem necessary at this point to add this
into org.
