I have made a first shot on a plugin-selector plugin. Once loaded, it
appears in the Media/Preferences menu. Also attached a new version off the
tabbed console plugin. Comments are welcome.
BTW the gtklook plugin makes messagebox font quite big (compared to the
button's text) and there is no way to override it, unless i overwrite some
options which i'm not bold enough to do...
