The message is not a bug, it tells me that I am trying to store a wrong 
link. The issue is that current implementation does not prevent 
appearance of multiple identical links after several cycles 
store-link/insert-link to the same heading.

Whether stored links should be reordered depends on specific action, so 
a defcustom user option is not a rescue:

1. Collect links in certain order for `org-insert-org-links'. Duplicated 
link is a real error.

2. Copy link going to immediately insert it. Making the link the default 
one sounds reasonable. Perhaps the user still should be notified.

So I disagree that "already stored" is a bug, but there is room for 
improvements.
