Hi,
while working with Ext's grid component and subclassing its Ext.data.HttpProxy for some custom data handling I found that subclassing approach quite useful for configuration of larger components (read: plugins). I'd like to explore in what ways that approach could help making jQuery plugin easier to customize, whenever a simple plugin option isn't available or not enough.
Ext's subclassing approach is okay, but the API rather clumsy. I'm remember seeing a little framework on this list with a really neat API, posted in the early days of this list, but couldn't yet find that again. Even more frustrating is that I remember that I searched for it before and didn't find it at that time. So links or hints and names or whatever are very welcome.
