I've published an initial beta version of a plugin (Custom Libraries) to
be able to setup more advanced libraries.

To install it you need to first install *License Manager* plugin, you
will get a free license automatically during the beta period the
dependency to License Manager plugin is just there for future use.
It will of course only work with latest 7.9 beta version of LMS.

To install the *Custom Libraries* plugin you need to setup an additional
repository in LMS Settings/Plugins (unless you already have my testing
repository configured):

Code:
--------------------
    
  http://erlandplugins.googlecode.com/svn/repository/trunk/testing.xml
  
--------------------

Then select to instal "Custom Libraries" plugin.

It's a beta version and there are still stuff left to do and probably
lots of bugs, but it allows you to:
- Setup libraries with a lot of different parameters, you do this under
the "Extras/Custom Libraries" section on the main page of LMS.
Configuration will likely later be moved to settings menu in a later
version.
- It creates a menu under My Music for each library if you have select
the "Show in home menu" checkbox of the library configuration.

It's not yet supported by Custom Browse, SQL Playlist and Custom Skip
plugins, but this will likely come in a later version if there is a
demand.

I'd especially appreciate feedback regarding which parameters people
wants to use to setup libraries and what kind of customisation
possibilities you want in the browse menus. For example, is there a need
to make it possible to enable different sub menus for different
libraries ?
