I haven't tested it, but a change like the one listed at the bottom of 
this email would probably meet your needs.  If you get something that 
you can verify works for you, I'll gladly add it to my repository.

Usage would be something like the following:

[mememe.plugin]
spam:
   http://foo.org/
   http://bar.com/
