Feature request: refile while leaving a link behind
I have a situation a lot where I write something in my org-journal files, decide it deserves to be in a file on its own, but I want to keep a link to it in my journal so I have a record of when the ideas occurred, and when I work with them later. I start with
```
* 2026-02-13 Fri
** [2026-02-13 Fri 11:04]Cool idea
:PROPERTIES:
:ID: 20260215T020009.212025
:END:
This is worth its own file!

** [2026-02-13 Fri 18:06] tool contemplation
```
And what I end up with is:
```
* 2026-02-13 Fri
** [2026-02-13 Fri 11:04]Cool idea
[[cool idea][link to file]]
** [2026-02-13 Fri 18:21]took nap, ate oatmeal
** [2026-02-13 Fri 18:06] tool contemplation
```
This process is annoyingly manual. Right now I basically have to duplicate the header in order to preserve the time stamp and its position in the file, before using org-node-refile to promote it, and then deleting the duplicate. It seems to me that maybe org-node-refile might have a variant that leaves a link behind at the original location? I'd also be fine if it ended up like
```

** [2026-02-13 Fri 11:04] [[cool idea][link to file]]
** [2026-02-13 Fri 18:21]took nap, ate oatmeal
** [2026-02-13 Fri 18:06] tool contemplation
```
If that winds up being easier.
Thanks!
