Yes, I have also thought about that, there is a pluginmanager in some guis
but not all. That's why I thought that a menu entry that makes
licq -p gtk_gui (or whatever) would be nice to let the user get back to
a knon setting. Ok it means that there might be a lot of menu options and
that those will not care about the last used list... There is downsides to
this but I dont see another solution for the newbees...
Maybe there could be some kind of launcher that asks what gui to
use... well I dont know.
And I don't think I got an answer to how the menu stuff works... (it might
be good to know in other projects too.), does the package need to do
anyting to take advantage over that...

We have seen this already, the reason I ask is that there is going to be
a new release soon, and it would be nice to have someone to throw things
on... ehhrr I mean ask for help ;)
