I wrote such a simple filter [1] for a project of mine. But since it is 
a bit hackish, I hesitated to contribute it. It also does some SPAM 
protecting e-mail address rewriting too. It should be the very last 
filter in an input filter chain. Valid Syntax is one of the following:

{internal URL}
{link text|internal URL}
{e-mail address}
{link text|e-mail address}

Hope that helps. Or might even get in shape to become a contributed 
Drupal module.

I know of no (elegant) solution, either.
