Hi Erland-

I like the sound of this!  I had actually tweaked the custom clock
applet to retrieve some SDT content but it would definitely make more
sense to have you natively support SDT.

SDT supports several CLI/JSON commands that basically return the hashes
that SDT uses internally.  The hashes evolved over time as the plugin
grew and might not be the most elegant, but I wouldn't expect them to
change other than possible additions.  I can also make a cleaner
API-specific hash if need be.

What would you expect to be provided for images?  Where/how do I
include the image files in the SBS plugin so that applets can access
them via some sort of text url?

I'll try to clean up some API documentation on this.

I wasn't aware of notifyFromArray.  Can you provide an example or point
me in the direction of an existing plugin that makes use of this in a
similar fashion?

Thanks
-Greg
