The idea was that if such a minor mode has a list of regexes it recognizes, neither org-, md- or hyperbole would need to keep their code for this, but = could relly on users to just (desc-links-mode +1). If I had this as global minor = mode, I could also enable it while writing mail and use say md syntax and have pr= etty links, which admittedly would come out ugly on the other end, but that is a= n agreement between the reader and the writer. In other words org links or md links would be available in any format and up to users where they want to u= se them. >What might be more interesting is generalizing Org previews: Org can >preview LaTeX and images, but we can think of it more generally - any >kind of text object might have alternative (possibly image) >representation.

A user could (rich-text-mod= e +1), and have org-markup (or their own) available in any mode of their choi= ce. I had font-lock and thingatpt in my mind, but I didn't want to talk about the implementation. After all, org uses font-lock under the hood for this anywa= y (or am I too unfamiliar now? :)). It is just a convenience. In all of this case= s, I am thinking of those small minor modes be a tiny small "frameworks", where = a user can setup like very few regexes, or whatever is needed for a parser, a= nd have a "customized" syntax instead of going on through writing their own mi= nor mode. >> org-timestamp interactiveity could be usable elsewhere than just in org >> mode.

We do the reverse - Org markup is getting more stable, with the aim to simplify developing third-party parsers and eventually registering Org syntax in IANA MIME db. However, stable Org markup does not mean that we cannot implement Org mode features outside Org mode. Another general direction we are going to is using parser APIs across Org mode. The idea is to encapsulate the fine details of Org markup into the parser, only leaving some very basic structures like recursiveness of markup objects exposed.

I am not subscribed to mailing lists due to lots of trafic going on there, = so I
am not overly introduced in directions in which org goes, so forgive me if = I am
not so familiar with the latest features.

Well, yes something like that; make features available outside of org-mode,= and
make org-mode use those features instead of having everything in a monolith= ical
library.

The idea was that if such a minor mode has a list of regexes it recognizes,=
neither org-, md- or hyperbole would need to keep their code for this, but = could
relly on users to just (desc-links-mode +1). If I had this as global minor = mode,
I could also enable it while writing mail and use say md syntax and have pr= etty
links, which admittedly would come out ugly on the other end, but that is a= n
agreement between the reader and the writer. In other words org links or md=
links would be available in any format and up to users where they want to u= se them.

Not a novelty at all :). The same as for links. A user could (rich-text-mod= e
+1), and have org-markup (or their own) available in any mode of their choi= ce. I
had font-lock and thingatpt in my mind, but I didn't want to talk about the=
implementation. After all, org uses font-lock under the hood for this anywa= y (or
am I too unfamiliar now? :)). It is just a convenience. In all of this case= s, I
am thinking of those small minor modes be a tiny small "frameworks&quo= t;, where a
user can setup like very few regexes, or whatever is needed for a parser, a= nd
have a "customized" syntax instead of going on through writing th= eir own minor
mode.

I see. Thanks. Something like that for other features.

This is not the direction Org mode project is going. We do the reverse - Org markup is getting more stable, with the aim to simplify developing
third-party parsers and eventually registering Org syntax in IANA MIME db.<= br>
However, stable Org markup does not mean that we cannot implement Org

I am not sure if many places (except Markdown) have a notion of link +
description. And the rest is supported by, say, Hyperbole.

What might be more interesting is generalizing Org previews: Org can
preview LaTeX and images, but we can think of it more generally - any
kind of text object might have alternative (possibly image)
representation. See https://list.orgmode.org/orgmode/87edbhljr7.fsf@hyperspace/

You are describing font-lock here. Users can already add custom
fontification in buffers by supplying regexps + face to be used for
specific text fragments. What is the novelty?

This idea does sound useful.
