I see. But it’s also an aspect that once you use the official implementation you can rely on them to maintain them and concentrate on other issues. It would make your effort simpler in the long run, I guess.
One bad side effect right now is that the plugins both react to and they both open their popups. Confusing.

I have been wondering about this for a long time. So now I have to ask.
You implemented a home-grown solution for snippets and for completion. This seems redundant as there has been a very capable Snippets plugin in Gedit for a while. Also – at least since recently – there is a seemingly very capable completion system in gtksourceview.
Do you have a rationale for implementing these two...

About forking Rubber: Don’t you think a more cooperative approach would be better to begin with? Perhaps Mon. Beffara would be glad to see fresh developer interest. Perhaps he agrees to move the repository to something like Google Code and give out commit access? Did you contact him yet?
About contributing: I think I should not divert any more time from the more important things on my plate.

In addition, \pdfinfo doesn’t work in XeTeX, where the \special{pdf: docinfo >} syntax is available. But it has the same issues with Unicode translation. hyperref handles XeTeX transparently, so this is a +1 to moving to hyperref.

Next, displaying the PDF file:
(For the internal previewer this can be handled more cleanly, because everything is internal to the plugin.)
When the user double-clicks a word in the PDF (or dvi) document, Evince executes the program that was specified in the --editor parameter, when starting Evince.
In reality we start the editor (Gedit) indirectly, via the synctex binary. The synctex...

Just to add some more potential implementation issues:
From my inspection of the workings of Rubber there is no way to add the -synctex=1 compiler option to the command line that rubber executes. I could be wrong however and maybe I am overlooking the obvious.
There are directives that, when added to the .tex source file, modify the behaviour. For example, I can change the binary:

It might be possible to enable this use case with gvfs-fuse. I know that when I double click a gvfs mounted movie file with mplayer, it will transparently remap the sftp:// url to a simple path under ~/.gvfs/sftp on xyz.local/. I guess the way the plugin forms the path is too simplistic.

Seems I’ve been seeing frames that weren’t actually there.

These are cosmetic issues only. But to gain wide acceptance these smapp things count.
- The Quit button on the toolbar is unneeded.
- There is an unneeded separator at the far left of the toolbar.
- No instant apply in the preferences. This is kind of mandated by the HIG. Not sure.
- Too many frames in preferences. Gnome doesn’t use frames,
only hierarchical indentation.
