One issue I noticed. The UI for saving plugins doesn't allow you to save updated versions of plugins. I've a few plugins I regularly update, but after I added them to the Bob library once, I couldn't update them again. Is there a reason why adding a plugin twice would result in problems, or is it just for the UI convience that things already added are removed from the list? Would it be possible to compare version numbers and allow updating plugins based on differing numbers?
