WikiRadio and MyPicks both use Slimserver XMLBrowser which handles the
OPML. AFAIK there is no "popup" type functionality currently in the
User interface. So to implement the envisaged functionality would
require core Slimserver changes and not just an enhancement of the
wikiradio Plugin. I prefer to avoid this. 

Some brainstorming - I'm not sure if the following will work but it
stays within Wikiradio.

I was think along the lines that URLs that are templates and require
some form of text replacement could be prefixed by a special type (e.g.
abcd://www.abc.com?userid=bpa is entered as
tmplt://abcd://www.abc.com?userid=$$USERID).  A protocol handler for
"tmplt://" could process the URL, strip off the prefix and do text
replacement.  

Would this meet your needs ? there would be no pop up - however there
could be additional Plugin setup dialogue to define discovered
undefined parameters. 

If a user tried to access an tmplt:// URL - the first time an error
message telling users to use the Plugin setup if the parameters were
not defined in the pref file,. It will also record the names of the
undefined parameters to prompt the user.
