Hi All,
When point is on a heading, `org-open-at-point' offers to open links
in the subtree. This is a very useful feature, and I use it a lot.
However, in this case, `org-open-at-point' not only opens the link,
but also moves point to said link. Perhaps there's some reason why
point is not preserved in this case. But for me at least, this is not
what I'd expect, and I find it somewhat disrupting, especially when
I'm working on a folded tree (defeats speed keys, etc.).
A simple test file to reproduce the described behavior:
#+begin_src org
,* Heading
Foo.
https://orgmode.org/
Bar.
#+end_src
How about adding a `save-excursion' for this case inside `org-open-at-point'?
Best regards,
Gustavo.

I see no particular reason.

+1.
But maybe others have objections.

Maybe the following is a false alarm. I hope `save-excursion' will not
break the "RET to open all" option, `org-open-at-point' is called
recursively this case.
I am not an active user of this feature. I tried it likely in the
context of another discussion and faced some issues. Perhaps that
heading had several links to other locations in the same file and I did
not get a window per link.

"Open all" is broken now.
That said, your concern is valid - if we open internal link, it will be
expected the point jumps to that link rather than staying on the
heading.

I believe that I now addressed all the concerns:
1. Point position is not preserved by default.
2. When a link being open moved point in current buffer, we do allow
changing the position.
3. When multiple links are open, things should not be broken.
4. When multiple links are open and some of them (more than 1) also move
point, we move point to the position defined by the last of such
links.
Fixed, on main.
