XF 1.5 Preset message content within "Start a conversation" link

[NinaMcI]

Hi. Is there a way to include a preset text that will be automatically inserted in the redactor box when using the following conversation add link:

<a href="{xen:link conversations/add, '', 'to={$user.username}','title=my title', 'MESSAGE= Custom Message here' }">{xenhrase start_conversation}</a>

You can do it in XF2 but not XF1.

Is there absolutely no work-around for XF1?

You would have to extend the code to add support for it.

Would you be able to explain how I would go about doing that, please? Your help would be very much appreciated.
