That is true for the cObject itself. But we pass our whole conf
directoy to typolink function.

function typoLink($linktxt, $conf);

Inside the function itself I don't see any point, where our
configuration would merge with existing one. But it is very complex. I
wouldn't swear on this.

I wouldn't implement this into this class.

But the trick is quite simple with ect_link. You prepare one instance
as a skeleton by setting some setters. Each time you need a link you
make a copy of the skeleton, you set the differing setters and call
makeTag(). Unset your copy. You are done.

Because all copies refer internally to the same cObject (in the next
version), you wouldn't even significantly lose performance.
