Hello,
commit 4e864643bdb6bba3e000ea51fb746a26e40b1f77
Author: Nicolas Goaziou <address@hidden>

changes the behaviour of org-return when positioned right after a link with
org-return-follows-link set to t.
the following patch seems to repair the behaviour:
But is the current behaviour broken in the first place? At least it is
consistent with `org-open-at-point' (C-c C-o).
Yes. Yes.
Before commit 4e86464 the behaviour was:
[[link][description]]x
with cursor at x hitting <RET> I got a line opened with cursor positioned
at the beginning of the new line (or indented).
But you are right, org-open-at-point with cursor at position x jumps
to the link. This behaviour is not changed with the commit but I think
this is also not the right behaviour. If you go with the mouse over the x
then you don't get any popup from the link. For this you have to
go at least over the last character "]" of the link resp. the visual "n"
of the description. Even if you describe-text-properties with cursor at x
you don't get any hint of the link. You have to go over the "]" (resp. "n")
to see the link hint.
From my point of view the commit 4e86464 changes the behaviour of org-return
in a manner of which I think is not natural. org-open-at-point is, in my
opinion, wrong in the same way because description says:
"... When point is on a link, follow it."
And being with cursor at x is obviously not "on a link".
Any opinions from you or other org'ers?
With kind regards,
Stefan
