Yes, imposing widening to the user is intrusive. Moreover, I think you
cannot avoid to call org-link-search twice (once it has failed): the
point is to do a local search and then a global one.
Though, the macro idea is interesting, as I can see at least one other
place where it might be useful. So, what about changing the macro to:
1. If current buffer is narrowed, execute body with the current
restriction. If it fails (silently), re-execute body with a widened
buffer. Restore default narrowing.
2. If the buffer has no narrowing in effect, just execute body.
Also:
1. Doc-strings must refer to the arguments.
2. Don't forget to add: (def-edebug-spec macro-name (arguments)) just
after it.
3. You need to add a proper ChangeLog message in your commit.
Thank you for looking at this.
Regards,
