To avoid this, you can set search-invisible to t, but then you don't see what you're replacing. Another option is to toggle literal link display with org-toggle-link-display, and then run the search and replace as usual. > The answer might be a "works as expected".

I don't really see any danger in that because it's just plain text and it's querying you about what to replace, so I think that's fine too for a one-off search and replace. -- Kyle
