Subject: Org-capture %a expansion - create ID link

Hello all,
I'm using capture templates with the %a expansion element [1]
The documentation says: "Annotation, normally the link created with
org-store-link."
The expansion results in links like this:
file:~/org-mode/inbox.org::*Heading
This not really so good, because I routinely refile things in my inbox -
which
renders the link useless.
Is there a way to force org-capture to generate a link with a globally
unique ID?
A brief look at the code
https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode/src/master/lisp/org-capture.el#L631
seems to suggest
that org-store-link is called with a nil argument - I don't know what that
exactly does but I wonder if that's what is causing the generated link to
behave differently than when org-store-link is called interactively?
I would also like a globally unique ID generated for the currently clocked
item (the %K expansion
element), but hey, one thing at a time, right? :-)
Any ideas?
Thanks,
--Nate
