Hi, Recently I wrote a blog post on making headlines clickable when Org mode is exported to HTML: https://writepermission.com/org-blogging-clickable-headlines.html
With this mail, I'd like to suggest a change to bring this feature to the Org mode core. It's my first contribution to Org mode, but I've already completed the paperwork to contribute to Emacs core in the past. Of course any comment is welcome. -- Toon
