Such an admin plugin system sound's reasonable to me. This way
syntax/action/whatever plugins could come with their own administration as
well.

I'm open for any suggestions and code as always ;-)

---------------------------------------------------
I have put something together for admin plugins, including converting the
admin_acl function. The details are at
http://wiki.jalakai.co.uk/dokuwiki/doku.php/admin_plugins.  I would
appreciate any comments. One particular issue I would like ideas on, is how
to handle language strings within plugins.
