You're right for external link. Though something like [[label|external URL|hint text|language of target]] would be solving nearly all cases.
And, there can be cases where a wiki has pages in several languages, meaning that $link would be nice to offer that possibility too. and the [[...]] notation would be the very same than above. As for the hint text, this is also something that may have to be set for accessibility reasons.
