This can already be done. I just made a simple test plugin that opens
as a palette with a couple of formatting buttons that add tags to the
selected text.
Make a new plugin, and in the doStartup handler, all you need is
"palette this stack" (or you can make it a drawer I guess).

Then remove the default interface from the plugin window, add your own
interface objects and script them.
Use the examples and the default doStartup handler to work out what to
include in your own handlers.

Cheers,
Sarah
