yes this sounds great. i don't really care if <a>s are changed into
<link>s or not; it actually makes more sense to just keep them as <a>s.
Let's talk about the user interface now.
What the option should look like?
It seems to me that this would be useful for inline tags only.
I would propose to use another modifier before the tag. For example:
A<a>
(A for "no attributes")
or
f<a>
(f for foldable)
You seems to also want an option to specify that all attributes of inline
tags should be folded.
I propose to add an 'a' or 'A' (or 'f' or 'F') to
defaulttranslateoption
Do you have other ideas?
Best Regards,
