This is what I implemented in Maruku. After a week of using it, I
would say that the additional ":" does not introduce much "visual
noise",and is certainly worth keeping to make things less ambiguous.
One thing: I would use a different symbol for the short link syntax. A
colon makes me think of a description, which is coherent with the idea
of attributes, but not with the idea of link (this is subjective, of
course).
What about this:
And this is a [*short link] -- or is it better *[like this]?
