 Replying to [comment:10 Mamaduka]:
 > I think we should use `esc_url()` instead of `esc_url_raw()` in
 `get_content_link()`, because second function is not safe to use for
 displaying the URL.

 Function could be used for purposes other than display. the_link() could
 probably stand to do esc_url(), though.
