Hmm, maybe something like this:

  $[link "http://mysite.example" :label "Example" :html-attr "..."
:latex-attr "..."]

Code that adds functionality or safety to this syntax (including all
future code) will also apply to other features than links.  For a new
feature, replace the first element with id, fancy-date, or whatever
idea you have.  It might even be possible to open it up to the user in
a safe and convenient way.
