I also agree that single bracket reference-style syntax is not prudent. As
Jacob suggested, it creates ambiguity for the reader (Is it an edit or a
link?). It also creates a new problem of potential conflict, however rare that
may be.
It seems reasonable to prefix a marker colon (possibly followed by whitespace):
[:ref link] or [: ref link]
And perhaps the same for attributes:
{:att ref} or {: att ref}
This syntax is also more coherent with the footnote syntax[^1] (which also
prefixes a marker). It simply seems prudent to me. Comments?
