Fixed.

Done.

I'm not sure it belongs to the manual, as it is more of an
implementation detail. For the time being, I don't add it.

Fixed.

Fixed.

Done.

`org-capture' itself doesn't check `org-id-link-to-org-use-id' so it
would be confusing to write about it in the docstring. I didn't find an
adequate location for this (`org-capture-templates' maybe), so I didn't
change anything here.

Done.

Fixed.

I agree. Done.

Done.

Done.
