FYI from Bernd:

> Hi Daniel,

to improve the plugin would require quite a bit of work and I don't have
much time right now. So I'm sorry to say that the chance that I du an
update are quite slim. Maybe somebody is interested to take over the
plugin and implements a more user friendly interface.

Best Regards,
Bernd

I don't immediately know what to do - perhaps when i have some time i'll 
look into this. Otherwise if anyone else is feeling curious, do please 
have a look!
