You could store the bbcode in the element's jQuery data store:
$("#test").data("bbcode", "...");
and you can get it back out by
var bbcode = $("#test").data("bbcode");
See http://docs.jquery.com/Core/data for more info.
Please let me know if your question goes further into how to make your
plugin accept a method call that would then return this data.
