n.b. org-link-minor-mode exists, works, and i find it useful. i think it could use updating, but it is indispensible.
btw i have not tried embark yet. i wonder if it could do something similar, or maybe it doesn't fontify. meanwhile, for years now i'm finding that i am wanting a new link-like anchor-like feature that would also be a minor mode for non-org and org. a little similar to org-link-minor-mode in usage. it is a very simple feature that is sort of a tiny subset of what id markers can do [those are extensible syntax thunks that use org ids in org and non-org]. i want to be able to place ===link thunks=== anywhere, such as elisp or shell comments, and have features for listing all of them that exist in my common directories [shell, elisp, org] like a better lgrep with wgrep, navigating from one to the next, fontification, completion, etc. so for example, i could put ===refactor whatever=== on a few things in various files, and navigate among them. they kind of indicate a topic or allow gathering together things that are related. have to try embark sometime to see if it can do things like that.
