Re: [Bug] org-insert-link removes on one link from 2 added by org-store-link

[Samuel Wales <samologist@gmail.com>]

link has already been stored is a bug in my case in that i can't just
go to a header, grab it [whether rabbed bfere or not] and then paste
it.  i surprise easily when the wrong link gets pasted.

[also the id links with no desc and the prefix links do not help me
find the link i want to insert if it is opne previously.

in answer to a q by ihor, indeed puttig previously stored id liks as
descriptions in front of all the prefixes woudl be useful to me, but
idk who is doing the sorting, so idk whether it wold make a difference
but if it dos then gret..]

it seems org-insert-=inki is overloaded.  one use case says insert a
previously stored link.  the other says insert a brand new link which
i will now specify.  might it be useful to separate those two
functions?
