Benson,

I was thinking of overloading the plugins so they had something "useful" running underneath. CPU and MEM are a good idea, as is launching commands. I will look at it, but it probably won't make it in for a couple of releases (if I can work it at all).

I am looking at uploading the source and package somewhere. I have a homepage, but the server has been a bit up-and-down lately. I also have an unrelated garage page that I could maybe put this on.
