--- Comment #3 from WhatamIdoing <[email protected]> ---
I'd rather have a label input (or at least a label display) in the link
inspector, but some method of indicating that the link is piped or has separate
trailing text is important.  

If you see a redlink like "Alice Expert", you can't tell from looking at the
link in VisualEditor that it's actually piped:  [[Alice D Expert|Alice
Expert]].  Fixing the label to match the actual article title name ("Alice D.
Expert") does not fix the broken link.  

There's no way to see that the redlink didn't get fixed when you changed the
label to "Alice D. Expert" (because VisualEditor's "red" links are blue).  

There is also no reason for you to suspect that the problem is due to a hidden
piped link, because there is no visual cue that you need to go into the link
inspector to address the hidden/piped link.
