I found org link can't get link description easily.

I googled it how to get link description. Found this solution. But it's not 
intuitive.

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun get-description-at-point ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((link (org-element-context)))
    (message "%s" (buffer-substring (org-element-property :contents-begin link)
                                    (org-element-property :contents-end 
link)))))
#+end_src

Why now support this?

#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(org-element-property :desc (org-element-context))
#+end_src

Maybe the key ~:desc~ could be more meaningful detailed.

WDYT? Nicolas
