Morris, It is indeed a cool plugin
I think there is a few others which might be the first JQuery Plugins though. VisioWiki has some. TiddlyDocs has a JQuery tree menu. FND's awesome idea of quake like navigation the ViPlugin and also his listNav menu uses use of jQuery. The tag tree plugin is good, but it requires external files. For me this is very important. It will always be an 'outsider' in my book if I have to start making folders with files in them. (I was under the impression that it is in development to this end.) I'm a user not a developer. I think that your observation is not right about a drift between developers and users. On my recent trip to visit the Osmoplex people, I was treated like a royal visitor. To say that they are not respecfull of end users is unfair and not consistent with my experience.
