Re: org-custom-id-goto?

If you like ivy, you might find this helpful:

(defun ivy-org-jump-to-heading ()
  "Jump to heading in the current buffer."
  (interactive)
  (let ((headlines '()))
    (save-excursion
      (goto-char (point-min))
      (while (re-search-forward
	      ;; this matches org headings in elisp too.
	      "^\\(;; \\)?\\(\\*+\\)\\(?: +\\(.*?\\)\\)?[ 	]*$"  nil t)
	(cl-pushnew (list
		     (format "%-80s"
			     (match-string 0))
		     (cons 'position (match-beginning 0)))
		    headlines)))
    (ivy-read "Headline: "
	      (reverse headlines)
	      :action (lambda (candidate)
			(org-mark-ring-push)
			(goto-char (cdr (assoc 'position candidate)))
			(outline-show-entry)))))

There are also helm equivalents.
