Within a plugin, you have other options to share data, but across plugins, this is the best way. Make sure you register that slot with a reasonable name, and then lookup on the same name from both plugins to make sure both plugins are using the same slot. Also, the number of slots is static (16 if I recall), so you should use them only when there are no other options (this sounds like a legitimate use case though). — leif
