Yes there is. Org syntax doesn't support nested links. Most export
back-ends do not either. I introduced `org-export-insert-image-links'
a few ago to let other export back-ends have nested links. See its
docstring for details.

Display would not be on par with underlying syntax. I find this
inconvenient. More inconvenient than not displaying the clickable image,
that is.

Regards,
