Sorry, I have to agree with Dan on this one. Regardless of how useful a 
plugin is, including recommendations for it in a Rev guide is off topic. 
And it would force Dan to choose some plugins over others, which would 
necessarily be arbitrary -- there are so many good ones out there. How 
would he choose which ones to exclude? Best to keep any documentation 
restricted to the IDE itself.
