Did you know revTools comes back toplevel after it's hidden? I'm sure it's fixed in the newer version

Take a look at the way revObjective is separated into two plugins now. An invisible one not shown on the menu and a modeless one that is on the menu. Although your plugin is clearly much more complex maybe that's a good option for you? The visible one could be the help/prefs stack. We need heaps more plugin hooks.

One other thing is if the debug console is open and you try and quit rev then rev hangs.

Overall it looks like a great new addition to Rev.
