Looks like your original idea to revise `org-export-data' might be best.=20

IIUC, you need to add the link text to the SIGNAL-DATA in each of the place=
s where `org-export-resolve-*-link' functions call `signal', then modify `o=
rg-export-data' to ignore the addition for `mark' and add it back for your =
new `mark-with-text' option.

HTH,
