As mentioned previously on this list, I would also like to develop a plug-in with similar pixel coordinate requirements. For my purposes, using the color picker would be an extremely ugly and practically unusable hack. I really need to get the coordinates directly and on the fly from the plug-in, as in click on button on plug-in's user interface to initiate pixel selection, then click in image (or preview?) to return coordinates to plug-in.
