Hi Bastien,

TLDR: remove ?\=3D from org-link-escape-chars.

I looked at this again and I think I've stumbled on another small issue rela=
ting to hex escaping.=20

If I type a link with an equals sign (=3D) into the link prompt of org-inser=
t-link, the link inserted into my buffer has a %3D instead of the valid =3D.=
=20

Tracing this, it goes through org-make-link-string, which hands off to org-l=
ink-escape which uses the defconst org-link-escape-chars as the table of val=
ues to escape. Org-link-escape-chars appears to only be used within org-link=
-escape at this time.

I think =3D is escaped because it may have conflicted with the verbatim synt=
ax at some point, but that doesn't appear to be an issue any more.=20

Is there a reason not to remove it?=
