If I understand correctly, what you want is some kind of multi-remember:
you want to be able to create multiple links from the current buffer and
store those links somewhere in an Org file.
Maybe you can have something near by using a clever template:
(setq org-remember-templates
'(("Code" ?c"* %T%?\n\n%(my-list-of-todo-links)"
"~/org/annotation.org" "Code")
With `my-list-of-todo-links' creating a list of links to all the
locations where you have a TODO in the buffer, resulting in:
- TODO #1: [[~/buffre::(defun foo][My foo defun to debug]]
- TODO #2: [[~/buffre::(defun bar][My bar defun to debug]]
- ...
This is bit as if you replace the %a in the template by a %(sexp)
doing the job of harvesting several links.
The only problem with this is that remember this won't get rid of such
previously remembered items (hence the %T in the template.) You would
have to delete/archive them by hand.
