My use case is to disable/enable bbcode rules when using the replace rule of bbcode.

```javascript
replace: function (state, tagInfo, content) {
  const source = state.push("my_token", "div", 0);
  try {
    md.block.bbcode.ruler.disable("ruleName")
    source.children = state.md.parse(content, {});
  } finally {
    md.block.bbcode.ruler.enable("ruleName")
  }
  return true
}

```

I noticed that the TODO comment here was from a long time ago, any plans to implement it?
