Discussed in #379

Since I often use UUIDs as filenames for my notes, I typically call insert_link() with the parameter { with_live_grep = true } so I can search for notes by their content rather than by filename.
Currently, the inserted link contains only the UUID and no alias, which makes it difficult to understand what the note is about at a glance.
Long story short: would it be possible to optionally add an alias to the inserted link, derived from the note’s internal title (for example, its # <Title>, --\ntitle: <Title>\n-- or frontmatter title), instead of just using the UUID filename?
