Add url parameter to prefill the compose area with text

[nicklormand]

Similar to how you can open up specific streams and topics by adding special url parameters like this:
https://yourdomain/?stream=zulip-help&topic=zulip+drafts+with+url+parameters

It would be really helpful if there was a parameter called "message" or "draft" that would let me create links with message templates to be automatically added to the compose area.

It would ideally look something like this:
https://yourdomain/?stream=zulip-help&topic=zulip+drafts+with+url+parameters&message=This+is+a+test

@nicklormand thanks for the feature idea; it's not one we'd considered before :). I started a community conversation about the idea here: https://chat.zulip.org/#narrow/stream/101-design/topic/prefill.20compose.20box.20idea/near/1266810.
