Hi Nicolas,

I understand the problem and I agree that editing links and text around
them is not always straightforward.  However I think that what you are
proposing is a change in behavior that does not strictly solve a
technical problem.  As such, I believe, having the [ ] markers should be
an option, and probably not enabled by default.

Cheers,
Daniele
