It looks cool, but I'm not sure how I'd use it (I'm probably being dense). Once a snippet is saved what would I do with it?
Is it possible to put all the code in snippet.xml? So that it is added under another category, instead of having code in helpmenu.js? (btw, I've attached an updated helpmenu.js that merged your changes with the latest changes.)
