As some people have problems to adjust some parts of the dialogs, and in fact it's some code that it's always being adjusted and reused, I've created this plugin that allows to remove dialog fields or change their default values by using some configuration values.
More info in this blog post about configuring dialogs , this one about placeholder and hiding fields.

Installation
1. Extract the contents of the file into the "plugins" folder of CKEditor.
2. In the CKEditor configuration file (config.js) add the following code:
config.extraPlugins = 'confighelper';
3. Set the fields that you want to remove or change as explained in the included doc.
Version 1.3 doesn't seem to work with inline editors in CKEditor version 4.0.x
I've tried setting a placeholder attribute on the div that gets converted using CKEDITOR.inline, and also by setting editor.config.placeholder on the resulting editor, but no luck.
Any chance of an updated confighelper plugin in the works?
I've updated the plugin to fix the compatibility with inline editing.
