It will be just like with a player's OSD. As long as that OSD is open, no other
will be opened - except if the user presses the Menu button. In that case the
plugin's OSD will be closed (I'll probably need call some Hide() function, so
the Plugin "knows" about this) and can later be re-opened by selecting the
plugin's main menu function again (the plugin will have to memorize it's
internal state, so that it can re-generate its OSD, but that should be no
problem).
