I like #3.
That seems reasonable to me---that's usually what people mean by the
inline links anyway (an assertion that their link constitutes a
reference). Of course someone should still come along and either: 1)
expand them into a full citation (e.g. with {{cite web}}); or 2)
determine that the link is not a reliable source, and either remove it
or move it to the "external links" section. But we have to do that with
links that are already in ref tags anyway.

That will mangle attempts to do standard administrative history and
link references in the context of an inline discussion on a talk or
notice page, though...
