I see it as orthogonal to orgstruct - they could happily co-exist side by side.
I've just tested that though and it seems they don't. I'll try to fix that.

Thanks - I used your suggestion as you can see here:

  https://github.com/seanohalpin/org-link-minor-mode/blob/master/org-link-minor-mode.el

I realised the problem I had was that I can't prevent entering the minor mode
because by the time I check for org-mode, the minor mode has already been
entered so I have to turn it off again.

BTW, I've refactored the code to simplify it and added more link types.
