 WordPress uses custom "wplink" plugin, and it's great as content editor,
 because we can easily search for our content.

 But a lot of plugin uses wp_editor() as front end form, and link is
 crucial feature, but there's no easy way to remove this search ability in
 wplink.

 why remove the original tinymce "link" plugin?
 I think it's best to just leave it there, and plugin can use this plugin
 instead of using wplink (better for general use editor, and not content
 editor)
