This is similar to Emacs bug#66752[1]. It would be nice if
"(thing-at-point 'url)" would return the URL when point is over an Org
link. With this, it's easier to write a function that copies (or browses
to) the URL at point without coding so many special cases.
Actually, this code should probably be a bit more selective: is there a
good way to tell when an Org link is an absolute URL, as opposed to some
relative path or internal target?
Maybe we should check 'thing-at-point-uri-schemes'?
