It's not possible to show the correct link and end up anywhere else if you use only text, but it's equally true of course that a HTML link may point to something else. Which is why a status preview is vital in HTML email clients.
What would be even better? A warning when you are about to follow an obfuscated link. I think we'll see some of this soon, I vaguely remember mentions of this kind of solutions already being implemented in some email clients/browsers. I also presume junk filters are pretty sensitive to this kind of stuff.
