hmm. seems links are not, or at least not yet, a complete syntactic solution.

i do but i don't want to clutter org with properties drawers. i
already have a lot of ids and when org needs to search them it can
take some time.
basically i use non-id links for ephemeral tasks or to point to
ephemeral tasks. i know i won't change the headers, but i want the
links there.

nah, making capture not follow is sufficient. i don't know the
optimal solution.

Currently Org has no satisfactory way to handle square brackets within
links' path or description. Percent-escaping (e.g., "%5B")is not one.
I suggest to use a custom ID for the time being.

If you think there is another bug, please start another thread and
provide as much information as you can.

Is the example above self-contained, i.e., is the link supposed to match the same headline? If so, it cannot work since you are not looking for the exact title. You may want to use a custom-id.

Re: [O] [bug] org 9 hangs on link search
file links don't hang now, thanks. however, if the header to be searched consists of only a link, it fails to find the link. perhaps it needs regexp-quote. * [[file:/home/a/b.org::*add%20another%20link%20bug][add another link bug]]

I committed a simplification of `org-link-search' so it no longer
produces this kind of regexp.
Anyway, please report if you encounter the freeze whenever you get the
chance to test the fix.
