Ok, I mixed up the different things.
But it is not planned to enhance the plugin-interface in such a way, isn't
it?
Wouldn't it be at least possible to call a plugin from within a dialog with
the selected item as parameter, e.g. to get additional file infos or other
functionalities.

I know, you don't want to "marry" vdr and plugins to much.
But wouldn't this increase the useability of vdr, e.g. you don't need 2
browsers for the recordings.
And there would be many interesting things for this.
