This idea would be a big life saver for players who trade a lot. I personally often post multiple messages at a time in the Trade channels of Adventure Zones which I'm visiting, such as:
WTT [Item Name] FOR 4x [Item Name] OR [Item Name]
WTS: [Item Name] 1055g, [Item Name] 950g, [Item Name] 110g, [Item Name] 85g, [Item Name] 2.5g
WTB: [Item Name] 45g, [Item Name] 150g, [Item Name] 120g, [Item Name] 4g, [Item Name] 1.5g
A big issue I'm encountering is that, every time after I log into the game, I have to relink all those items again in order to post those messages again. That's a time-consuming process because I have to find those items in my inventory, on Auction House, or in other UI windows and then use Shift key + left mouse click to link them one by one, and also manually write some necessary numbers (price and quantity).
Another issue is that, I sometimes have to reply to people who send private messages to me to negotiate prices or inquire something. But after I reply them by using private messages, I can no longer use Up arrow key to access my previous messages and quickly re-post them (this seems to be a bug) and instead have to once again re-link all those items. So sometimes I summon my mail portal and reply those people by using mails. That's funny.
If there is a way for us to memorize our messages and also preserve the linked items in the messages, that would be really wonderful.

Using raw item's id catalogue number to reference the items could be a solution. Thank you.
I'll see what we can do about allowing typed item links. There is a html-like syntax we use internally to put item links into mission text and what-not, but we long ago decided to strip or all html-ish stuff to avoid people sending nefarious web site links that are too easily clickable by the unsuspecting masses.
It replaces it with some type of error in curly braces.
