Which raises the question: Should two (or more) devices be able to share
the
same plug-in?

Initially, the design was that every device would probably be different in
some
way, so would require it's own plug-in information.

However, suppose Frank's device operates in exactly the same way as Ian's,
which
is quite possible if they both follow the same OSD schema, then shouldn't
there
just be one plug-in for them both?

However, if either Frank or Ian adds a new feature to their device, then
they'll
require their own plug-in, so maybe it's better to keep each device to it's
own
section?

Thoughts?

Regards,

John
