Ciao Jeremy & twMat

A footnote on plugins from how I see them. When I install a plugin I 
consider this a SACRED ACT :-). By which I mean it is someone else's work I 
benefit from. That is always at the back of my mind. 

In what you seem to be suggesting is being able to freely mess with 
grannies' underwear :-). Perhaps you all do it already and I'm simply out 
of the loop? :-).

More seriously, there seems something important around the whole rigmarole 
of creating a plugin in the first place and making clear WHO it is by? 
Disassembling that notion of "integrity" seems slightly at odds with 
current established practice?
