Scripts N Skinning

So here's my idea of the next big thing in dashes:
-Instead of only xas scripts, allow plugins (With layouts defined similar to skins) that have a UI controlled primarily by a mouse pointer.  Basically point and click.
-This allows visual plugins without the need of a new UI.  Of course you can have more layoutElements that act like scrollbars, textboxes, radio buttons, etc.

In conclusion:
-Make skins programmable, so they can act as plugins biggrin.gif

Edit: Obviously a "cleaner" solution calls for the new UI (whatever it is, laugh.gif)
But this way lets you use current stuff for new purposes
Or maybe this IS what you had in mind for the new UI
