I’m not sure if this is a bug or not.

In the second case, is it possible force the link to appear in the composer above (or below) the form?

There’s no way to force it. But if you choose to allow links in a category with templates, then I guess we should do something with the links. @Trash Do you think they should go below or above the template? I’m against adding yet-another setting for it.

Well, maybe below the template is better, so the form is always the first thing you’ll see as a user that open the topic (with link as title or not) to read it.
