Hi Stefan, Hi poor Paul Palei, I found a way to do what I want. Turns out an 'eager' plugin can access the good old IDataStorageService, which I can use to add my category nodes AND add a listener so I can change the node's parent when they are loaded.
Of course it would be better if I could force my plugin to load but it's probably a big can of worms. Thank you for your help.
