Hi Nicolas,

when in a file backed buffer, doing org capture with %A generates
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
[[some link][some description]]
#+END_EXAMPLE
and if the buffer has no file associated with it, I'd like %A to generate
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
some description
#+END_EXAMPLE

the above "some description" is inputed via prompting user.

regards,
