I searched the ML archives about that. It was a thread named

  [RFC] Change visibility for bracket links

in which you participated.

It never ended on anything concrete because the involved participants
disagreed on the default value -- or, to put it differently, I disagreed
with mostly anyone else -- and some users suggested another way to do
it, but never implemented their suggestion fully.

Anyway, here is an updated patch from the original thread, as a POC. It
adds `partial' to `org-descriptive-links'. It isn't complete, as
`org-toggle-link-display' should be altered so as to not modify
`org-descriptive-links'.

Maybe it's time for an old idea revival.
