It\\\'s bizzare that you rename variables like that

I truly understand and appreciate what you are saying and I can agree with your sentiments 100%. However, keep in mind that 1.3 will be the first release with plugin support. Between now and the production release we may make more changes that would break away from legacy code that has long needed an overhaul. That is why we have not officially released the plugin documentation nor the How-to on building plugins. When we feel the core code is stable and ready for prime time we will release those documents. My recommendation is don\'t develop a plugin now unless you are willing to deal with a few changes between now and the release date.

Case-in-point, my first stab at adding plugin support, though workable, will need some modifications to make the coding easier to understand without having to know all the in\'s and out\'s of the GL internals. This will, undoubtedly, force me to rework all of the plugins I have built thus far. A pain, yes, but a necessary painful step to avoid confusion for plugin-developers after the release.

Bear with us...we\'ll get there.
