Yes, with pleasure: Let's put it the most simple way:
1. Here is my new-link definition:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(org-link-set-parameters "new-link" :help-echo "show new-link's help echo")
#+end_src
(it doesn't change matter, if there would be :follow or :store function etc.)
2. the 'tooltip' shows my :help-echo string as expected.
[[new-link:awesome]]
3. Then I add the following abbreviation of the above link:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(setq org-link-abbrev-alist '(("nl" . "new-link::%s")))
#+end_src
4. the 'tooltip' does not work but shows the default:
[[nl:awesome]]
Hope that clarifies the issue.
Thanks once more for your sustained patience making link handling much
easier and more powerful!
