Comment (by Otto42):

 Agreed, I ran into this same problem.

 The htmlUpdate function is currently the main problem here. All the rest
 of the functions in here can be overridden and the originals called to do
 their job, but because htmlUpdate both builds the link and inserts it into
 the textarea, it's not possible to easily modify the resulting link
 without overriding this whole function. At least, not without using silly
 self-modifying-code methods.
