Thomas,

somebody on the english list pointed me to a plugin called : 
link_by_pageid, however that does some ugly xclassing, and didn't work 
anyways on a 4.2 and 4.4 TYPO3 installation.

I seem to be comfortable now writing htmlarea plugins, so I think I will
write a little plugin that adds a button for direct linking.
