Override rendering of built-in blocks (Link)

[adamtowerz]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'd like to override React rendering for links, but without completely re-implementing the Link code as a custom block.

Describe the solution you'd like
Ideally some way to provide a render that returns custom JSX

Describe alternatives you've considered
Considered re-implementing the Link code and disabling the existing default block but I want most of the same behavior, just custom rendering.

can you explain about why you want this exactly? what would you like to build from an end user perspective?

I'd like to check to see if a link is an internal link to a different page in the application rather than an external link, and if it is support additional features on the link like a popover on hover to peek into the page details. However, I'd like these to really just be links with respect to how they're stored and handled for all other purposes.

same here, I am building a Notion/obsidian/... clone backed by Google Drive and I want to be able to navigate in between pages. Currently, every link is always open in a new tab.

I'd love to have the same capability, my goal currently is to provide a tooltip for "internal" links as well as a logo suffixing the link's label to clearly indicate it's an internal reference.

Apart from making a custom inline block, I'm not sure how it can be done.

Yeah, same issue here. I would like to use my component library Link. I tried to override the default implementation, but failed 😬
