You may need two plug-ins in the same module for this, The idlebar plug-ins' eventhandler, as you noticed, is not called these plug-ins are intended just so show information. Daemon plug-ins can do any thing but can be more complicated to write and are quite difficult to use as an idlebar plug-in as they need to tell the idlebar how much space they take up. You could use the daemon plug-in to pass commands the idle bar plug-in. Not quite sure the best way to do this. May be someone else has an idea.
