I am currently going through some pages and adding links to other pages in BookStack. To try to quickly create these links, I am selecting the text I want to use for the link then using the keyboard shortcut ctrl+shift+k to bring up the Entity Select dialog to search for the page I want to link to. I was thinking it'd be nice to prefill the search dialog with the selected text.
To prevent interfering with existing workflows, the prefilled text could also be preselected in the search dialog so users who don't want to use the prefilled text can just start typing to do a new search.
For example, if I select the words "Frequently Asked Questions" in the following text and open the Entity Select dialog:
"For more information, check out the Frequently Asked Questions page."
I would like this result:

Thanks @aswgxf,
I quite like this idea as a nice UX improvement, and shouldn't be too tricky to add, at least when accessed via Keyboard.
Have assigned to the next feature release with intent to implement.
