Thanks Dan. I was just using this plugin as an example. I'm just wondering if in general there's a methodology for finding documentation on ANY type when you look at ANY plugin doc.
It would be ideal if they were hyperlinked like Javadocs, but I guess since the plugin realm is so open and public that this isn't feasible?
