i for one particularly love this idea. i think there should be a way for the default LL issued viewer to be a plain jane for every user client. but allow third party devs to create plugins that do whatever they want. the idea of the radar and ao are amazing. but dont stop there. there are tons of things that average users DO NOT use in the client already. LL could simply remove those items and offer them as plugins. i am for this idea of modularity 100%. my only question is where do we start?
