As I've already mentioned, I also don't like the idea of a special 
plugin menu.

I've recently changed the OpenVisible plugin code, so it will place the 
menu item just below the "open" item - by specifying an index (which is 
not perfect as it might need to be changed in the future).


BTW: What is this plugin actually doing?!? From the Wiki page and toying 
around I just don't understand it ;-)
