Description
It'd be nice if there was also an option to leave the chunk grabber delimiters in place. For example, I want to do something to the contents of an a href="(whatever)", but leave the a href in place. Actually, what I want to do is change the MediaWiki links so that they link to my own site instead of en.wikipedia.org. I'm trying to turn "The Big Example" into "the-big-example".

Is this not possible right now...?
#2
Sorry for the incoherent problem description :).
I'm using a Chunk Grabber, and I have the "Include rest" option ticked, and the "Pass delimiters" option unticked. The delimiters are not included in the output. I would like it if there were an option for them to be included; this isn't what you want, for example, in the mediawiki link filter where it uses [[]] as the delimiters, but it's needed where I'm using
<a href="as one delimiter, and">as the other.#3
Yes, so why wouldn't you check the "pass delimiters" option...?
#4
Hmm. Because I wanted to alter the stuff inside the delimiters, but leave the delimiters themselves "as is". Of course, I could have the code inside the chunk grabber reproduce the delimiters :).

I find this to be quietly useless. I cannot find a use case for this feature; then it would be enough to write the delimiters twice, to see them in the output.
Am I misunderstanding the request?
