Heh, fair enough. I get frustrated when things stray from the useful
thread of conversation, what can I say :)

I should say that, though the API design and long-term implications of
the external UI extension are a problem I have been harping on, you're
of course right in that it works. Those who implemented the external UI
stuff have already done the actual implementation of making external UIs
work, it's just in the wrong place(s). My task is basically to play the
architect and put that useful working code in the place where it belongs
to make the architectural problems go away. I'm certainly not saying the
work is entirely crap and wasted time, it just needs a bit of moulding.
Since I enjoy the architect thing quite a bit more than the nitty gritty
make-it-work thing, I'm quite grateful for what's been done, because I
don't want to do it :)

Speaking of existing work, I vaguely recall mention of a plugin with a
Qt GUI? Where is this, I need one for testing...

Cheers,
