`org-store-link' under some conditions may pick a link to wrong heading.

I can reproduce, though not exactly following your steps.
Can you try the attached patch?

Best,
Ihor

With equivalent patch (attached one has additional differences in spaces 
around) my particular case works. I have no idea which additional 
scenarios it may affect. I did not test the patch extensively. I faced 
the issue while I was preparing a patch to fix storing double #CUSTOM_ID 
links.

P.S. I am puzzled that `org-element-at-point' returns paragraph even 
when patch is not applied. After such call `org-store-link' does what I 
expect. However "after undo" erroneous state survives emacs restart, 
thanks to org-persist, I believe.

I pushed the patch upstream.

The bug was in very specific case. org-element-at-point now has a
special fast mode of operation when CACHED-ONLY argument is non-nil. In
this mode, it does not try to parse anything, but only checks the
nearest cached element and returns it if point is at the element
beginning, within +begin/end line of the element, or inside a
non-greater element. The error happened when the cached element was a
section and point was within blank lines at the end of the section
exactly one symbol before the following headline. In such cases,
org-element-at-point must follow some special rules (see comments in
org-element--parse-to), but it did not in this specific scenario.
On top of that, org-element-parse-to cannot return section and the
current code assumes that we ever attempt to return section when point
is at the beginning of section. So, it returns
(org-element-at-point (1+ pos)) instead. Hence, the next headline
was wrongly returned when (1) point is 1- beginning of next headline
(2) we are within blank lines at the end of section (3) some edit in
buffer just cleared everything in cache inside current section
(4) org-element-at-point is called with non-nil CACHED-ONLY argument.

Just calling org-element-at-point did not trigger error. You would need
to call (org-element-at-point nil 'cached)

Best,
Ihor

Thank you for the fix and for the detailed explanation, Ihor. I was 
naively suspecting some weird issue with undo, maybe similar to the one 
found with interference of tables and non-latin input methods.
