For what is worth, the use case of connecting manually WP posts to Discourse topics looks (to me at least) closely related to the core functionality that the wp-discourse plugin provides. I installed this plugin yesterday and immediately missed such feature.

The functionality provided by wp-discourse-shortcodes is more of a nice to have, and the plugin itself is presented as more experimental. I for one would go for wp-discourse plugin. 🙂
