Ability to link images in a quest description

Essentially, with this feature you'd be able to link in images into a quest description so they are displayed, I don't completely know what the most effective way to go about this would be or how intuitive it would be, but I've been theorizing some methods:
Using 'Resource Loader' under the file path:
'gamedirectory' / resources / betterquesting / images
In the images folder you can put in an image with a specific name like 'packfeature04' and then in the quest description editor area you can link in the image with a code such as:
[/img/]packfeature04[/img/]
Or there can be a button for importing images, upon clicking it lets you select the image from inputting its name (still keeping the Resource Loader directory theme), then you can freely drag it around the description space, etc.
Overall, images in quest descriptions seem like they could be pretty useful for conveying something more effectively, or adding some flair to the quest or to mod packs etc.
This is something I want to do but need to write an entire custom text parser and possibly a new renderer for it. Then I have a huge task of making new multi-line text editors around it again. Keep in mind that I'll need to support more than just images (think Patchouli).
It's no small task and its priority is lower than other things I need to get done right now. So unfortunately I won't be adding support for it just yet but maybe sometime in the future
